As for the colors, I usually take a black and/or white base, and add a touch of bright color (pink, yellow, electric blue, green or orange). It is also possible to have a single bright color outfit, which you can soften with neutral colors accessories.
But be careful, don't add too many different colors or it will look weird or too much.

You may have noticed that I am really (really really) into the bohemian and the tribal/geometrical styles, and if you did, you were right ! I appreciate those that much simply because they are easy to use, and they fit for any occasion, whether it is a simple casual daily outfit or a night out one.



Just sharing one last thing because it really is (for now) my favorite spring playlist for the upcoming months, here is the spring playlist by Jacksgap: Enjoy~
