3 ways to wear bright colors

The little black dress? A classic, of course. But there's no rule that says you can't veer into a pretty bright color occasionally.

Hot pink makes for a gorgeous little black dress substitute. Just keep details to a minimum (brights look best in minimal shapes) and go easy on the accessories to let the dress take center stage.

The simplest way to pop some bright into your life? Add a gorgeous crossbody bag in a bright pink, blue, green or yellow. It's a small dose of chic (look how great it works for Ines de La Fressange) and works great to liven up a casual outfit.

3.Why not mix all your brights together like Jean Paul Gaultier did on the runway? Cobalt, grass great, yellow and a spot of coral all play off each other beautifully.
