From the range of bold colors that took over the carpet, one would never guess that we were in the throes of winter. One color in particular that the stars can’t seem to get enough of is shocking yellow. This color was huge over the summer and continues to gain steam on the carpet –with no signs of slowing down. From neon shades to sequin embellished looks, color blocked pieces and elegant gowns, there’s nothing mellow about this season’s yellow. Based on what we’ve seen on the spring runways plus the already active awards season, get ready to see more of this gorgeous, stand out color.

Style Tip: Yellow is a perfect way to bring a colorful element of surprise to your outfit. So how do you make it work with what you already have? You don’t have to commit to a full blown yellow dress this winter, opt instead for a boyfriend cardi in the shocking color which works well over neutral or patterned dresses. You can also try a neon version of this color in a simple and light v-neck sweater. Tuck it into a pair of high-waisted jean trousers for an effortlessly chic look. You get to mix the best of the 70s and 80s without running into a style faux-pas.
