Remember that group from the 90s called Color Me Badd?  They had hits like “All 4 Love” and “I Wanna Sex You Up” (because, let’s be honest, what gal can’t resist that come-on line).  Those guys weren’t afraid of color, and if they can wear rainbow leather or chartreuse suits, we gals can certainly carry off a bold dash of color every now and then.  The key is just to own it.  This Roksanda dress that I got off of MatchesFashion (http://www.matchesfashion.com) is PINK — not soft pink or blush, but in-your-face, almost neon pink.  But it’s so much fun to wear.  I feel like it brightens every room and leaves me in a positive frame of mind all day.

Roksanda does a lot of interesting things with color and color-blocking.  She’s one of my favorite designers, so you’ll definitely be seeing her referenced here again … unlike Color Me Badd.
