Color-Blocked

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

Color blocking is all the rage now in the fashion runway and it looks like it's here to still early 2013. I've recently tried it on my wardrobe so I thought I might share this trend with all you brides-to-be(s) too!

First and foremost, definition:

Color blocking is a technique where blocks of various fabrics are sewn together to create clothing with a few different solid colors..

I've read somewhere that color blocking is not for the faint of heart. So if you think having a color blocked wedding dress is too much, you can always channel this colorful trend with your bridesmaids dresses.

The key colors this year is fuschia & tangerine, black on yellow, blue (which is now the winter color here in Australia) or neon colors.

I'm so in love with the canopy ceiling. Love the colors!  For favors, I found these adorable DIY terra cotta pots.

So, will you be color-blocking your wedding too? If yes, which color will you be mixing together?
