Hey guys! I am currently sitting at the airport waiting to board my flight to Oklahoma ( I’m originally from Tulsa, OK). So, I figured I would share with you one of my outfits that I absolutely love. This dress actually came to me by accident but i’m so glad it did. Wearing bright colors can be a bit tricky, but if you have the right accessories it can make a world of difference.
A few weeks ago I was doing some online shopping at Old Navy, and I came across this dress but in a different color. It was right up my alley since I like wearing more neutral colors. When my package came I received this mustard yellow color as opposed to the navy. At first, I had put it away to return and then I thought I’ll just try it on. This color is so bold that it can be a bit intimidating. I’ve seen it in stores and never thought twice about even looking at it. Trust me, it looks a million times better when you try it on. A few tips that I recommend when wearing brighter colors are doing a natural makeup look, avoiding any additional brighter colors (with handbags or shoes), and incorporating neutral accessories. I paired this dress with some cognac color wedges and a beige handbag. I wanted the focus to be on the dress without it looking too busy. I’m happy that I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried something new. I already placed another online order with a few brighter color tops-this could be dangerous because I’m finding a lot more stuff that I like, lol. My favorite colors for spring so far have been coral, mustard yellow, and mint (not all together, haha). What are some of your favorite colors that you like wearing?
Well, my flight is about to take off so I’m going into airplane mode. I hope you all have a great weekend!
love that color dress on you – i love wearing bright colors – especially turquoise in the summer
I love brights but lack the confidence to wear them because of my pasty white skin tone. Any recommendations to help me pull off a similar look?
I think colors like coral and turquoise would look great on lighter skin. I think its important to find colors that compliment your skin tone. Mustard yellow tends to look better on tanner skin IMO.
I love wearing bright colors. It’s a great way to make an impression as long as you don’t overdo it. Beautiful dress.
I love this dress! A Pop of color with nude accessories is one of my favorite looks!
Totally love this dress on you! I love bright colors and enjoy accessorizing them ❤

Thank you! I’m not sure if it’s just me but I was happier the day I wore this, lol. People say bright colors can improve your mood and I totally agree.
This dress is just so beautiful on you. Over here in the UK we don’t really get much of a chance to wear items like this, but i’m going to be on the hunt for something similar like this!
Thank you! It’s def. a color ill be wearing more often.
I love your look! Yellow is one of my favourite colours. And the accessories compliment the dress too.
Love your entire outfit and that dress is adorable 🙂 so springy!

Yellow is actually my favorite color to wear LOL I also saw beauty and the beast last week so now I want to get married in a yellow dress like Belle’s lol Hope you had a great flight.
You should totally get married in a yellow dress, lol. I had a great flight. Nonstop is the way to go.
First of all, let me just say that I love your Dupe Alert—that is hilarious and I love it. Very cute dress from Old Navy and I love bright colors especially since I live in Miami. You have great style. 🙂
Thank you so much. I love finding good dupes especially when I’m able to save so much money.
I love this dress on you! great style.
So happy you decided not to return the dress, this color looks amazing on you!!!
Thank you, Mayra!
Gorgeous! Love the yellow on you!
That looks great on you. Wise choice with the neutrals to complement the outfit! I’m glad you kept it!
Fabulous look! Great color!!
Good choice to just go for it because ya did good! The color looks amazing on you. My personal favorite colors to wear that are bright is red, yellow or cobalt blue. Cerulean looks good on me too. Those are pretty much the only bright colors I have tried. I tend to stick to more neautral colored clothes because I do love crazy colored makeup. But being a new business woman I love to switch to less neutral clothes and more neutral makeup for business.
Thank you! I also like wearing red especially when its around the holidays. I need to step up my makeup game and try more colors. Maybe i’ll get some motivation after reading your comment 🙂 .
You’re gorgeous! Love that dress on you. kimballandkedzie.com
That dress and color looks amazing on you! I totally feel you though, I am such a sucker for neutral colors that it’s hard for me to try anything different. Definitely motivated by this post though. Thanks gorgeous!

That color looks so good on you! I once bought a top that color and tried it on and was so taken aback at how terrible it looked on me. Your skin tone is perfect for that shade though and looks lovely!

Glad you kept the dress, its super cute on you! Color is a great color. 🙂

That dress looks so beautiful! The color suits you really well too!
That bright yellow looks SO good on you. I really wish yellow looked better on me, it’s such a pretty color, but it just doesn’t tend to go with my skin tone well.
I have the same dress but in blue! I love how bright this yellow is!

Thank you, Britt! I’m not usually drawn to yellow either but this worked. Sometimes it’s nice to try something new (which I hardly ever do, lol).
This looks great on you! I also love coral and mint for spring!
Thank you, Caitlin!

Thank you!
That yellow is such a classic color! Looks great on you, and who can say no to wedges😍😍😍Those are my fave shoes for spring/summer
Thanks, Talisa! I totally agree with you. I love wedges for this time of the year
That color looks fabulous on you! I have never been able to pull of yellow, but I think it’s such a lovely spring and summer color. Love how you styled this dress, too!
