Ah, Color Blocking, the only fashion trend I have noticed in which you actually need some knowledge of basic art to master. Now, I'm not a master in the least... I've simply been watching Youtube videos/tutorials like my life depends on it! (If you are curious about what constitutes Color Blocking, I recommend doing the same! There are some great videos out there!)Here is a website for basic color theory that can also get you started!
Here is the basic color wheel. Know this wheel, and you've got a good start on Color Blocking!
So in my last post, I said I was going to try my hand at Color Blocking. So here's my attempt!
I tried to go with an analogous color theme: yellow, green, and blue (I figured blue was close enough to yellow and green!).

Have you tried color blocking? What are your favorite colors to block?
Okay, so I know I tell this time and time again to all my accounts, but I am reviving my blog!
"And I mean it this time!" she said determined as her face turned red with embarrassment, knowing this was the umpteenth time she declared such a thing.
Anyway, I've been ITCHING to blog something but couldn't think of anything! I've even started several posts, only to scrap them after bloggers block has stuck me. But I will publish this post! *determined*
So here is a quick overview of what I am currently obsessed with...
IN MUSIC:
I, like many people, have watched the celeb version video of this song. I thought it was cute, but I was much more impressed with the song itself. It's just too catchy! And the official video is quite hilarious. :)
ON TV: How could I NOT be obsessed with this show?! I love the story, the characters, the FASHION! It's so good! If you haven't watched Jane By Design, I highly recommend it! :)
IN FASHION
It's true. I adore color blocking. Unfortunately, I have not mastered the trend yet. Or rather, I need to invest in some good color blocking staple pieces. I will be trying my hand at it tomorrow though! Pictures to come! :)
Do you have any favorites that I should know about? Food? Nail polish? Makeup?
