This season's ready-to-wear fashion trend is one that won't burn a hole in your wallet.
Color blocking -- wearing large swaths of contrasting colors -- is a simple look to pull off. You can find prints that have two or more blocks of colors, or simply mix and match separates. Pick colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel (i.e. green and blue) or tints (aqua and blue) for a more harmonious look. If you're more adventurous, try bolder pairings, like orange and blue.
Check out photos of celebrities who have embraced the color blocking trend, from Kerry Washington to Cheryl Cole to Demi Moore:
Gucci, Prada, Prabal Gurung and Jil Sander's spring/summer lines all highlight the trend.
Gucci's (seen on Kerry Washington above), has become so ubiquitous that it's been featured on the cover of over 50 magazines this season!
