HOT NEW HUE: LEMON & LIME

Yellow and green is such a naturally hot pairing! The two bold colors work well together because they're right next to each other on the spectrum.

Eva Longoria pairs her lemon-yellow dress with bright green pumps from Rickard Shah...Gisele adds a splash of green to her ensemble with her clutch. You can do the same with my picks below.
Left to Right. Top: Jimmy Choo Heron £276.50 at Net-A-Porter UK; and Miu Miu satin mini clutch £145.00 at Net-A-Porter UK. Middle: Kena Kai croc embossed clutch $125.99 at ebags.com; Kenneth Cole's Seafoam satin slingbacks $150.00 at Blue Fly; Shiraleah velvet fan clutch only $36.00 at ebags.com and ; Guiseppe Zanotti aloe satin crystal sandals $221.99 at Bluefly. Bottom: Topshop's sharp pointed metallic flat £25.00; Lanvin satin evening bag with stone £590.00 at Brown's Fashion and; Kate Spade's Montserrat Jocelyn clutch $325.00 at Nordstroms.

Left to Right: Milly Dress $445.00 at Bergdorf Goodman; Forever 21's Racerback Tank (not pictured)$8.80 is a great alternative!; and Nina Ricci's Floral Cocktail Dress is $2,890.00 on Net-A-Porter.

It's so funny. Someone who was supposed to be a goddess of the fashion business told me last summer that no one would ever wear yellow. So much for the experts.

Wendy, you know you that when it comes to fashion, one can never say never...I never thought I would wear colored jeans again, or tights :)

Mzcoko, the 'yardie in me loves the black, green and gold ;)

I agree! "Never" doesn't apply to fashion. And it's always best to go with your instincts rather to rely on "expert" opinions, don't you think? BTW, I hate In/Out and Do/Don't lists (though one of my rings was a Do once and I liked that!)
