Keep it simple
If you’re a color newbie, keep it simple with this trend and stick to neutral tops. This is the safest way to avoid a fashion disaster. A silky cream feminine blouse is fresh and classic paired with pastel shades. For a more casual look, pair your colored denim with a rough chambray button down or v-neck tee.

Accessorize
When accessorizing your colored jeans, make sure you don’t go too over the top. For shoes, metallic flats or sandals are cool and unexpected. Leopard print loafers and suede ankle booties also work. As for jewelry, don’t be afraid! Try an oversized watch with a few friendship bracelets or fun bangles.
Colorblock
If you’re a little more fearless, colorblock! Use the color wheel as your guide. Pick your outfit around neighboring or complementary colors on the color wheel. Buttercup yellow and lavender, and mint and blush pink are great combos. You can also work colorblocking into your ensemble by keeping your top neutral and colorblocking your denim and shoes.
