Trend Alert! Colour Blocking

Colour blocking (click here for heaps of details and explanations) is really big right now. It's basically clothing ( shoes, dresses, and everything in between) that has big blocks of colour. It can include black to break it up, but it doesn't have to. It's winter here in Australia, and colour blocking is just the thing for breaking up the blacks, grays and browns that people seem to fall into in winter.

Because I have auburn hair, I tend to shy away from bright colours, especially near the face. But Naina, who wrote the post I linked above, pointed out stockings. I've been really wanting some nice stockings for a while now: gray ones with dots, fishnets with a seam up the back... the list goes on! But because I can be very lazy, I haven't yet gone out to buy stockings yet, and now the shopping list has changed a little...

I still really want some gray ones with dots, but instead of other boring-coloured ones, I'm going to go a brighter colour... purple, anyone?

You saw it here first!
