It's a color blocking thing

I'm usually a black, grey, navy and the occasional white kind of girl, so I don't really know what happened to me lately, but as you know I started loving sequins and as crazy as it may sound also COLOR! Yes, you read that well, the black/grey/navy girl discovered the colorful girl inside! And it was about time, with all this magical color blocking going on on the streets. My favorite mixes are blue and orange, yellow and olive, navy or purple, denim and anything else and of course the star mix of the season red and fuchsia. Here are some shots of fabulous women in very colorful outfits, but also some softer colors or back and white alternatives for those of you who are just starting with this "color" thing and are still shy with the mixes:

How about you? Are you the dark shade kind like the old me or are you slowly starting to love colors and color blocking like apparently the new me does? What are your favorite color mixes?
