Winter is officially here and it’s time to up your style quotient! Today I’m going to introduce tips on how to wear neons—a hot trend making its way from fall to winter fashions.

While we tend to associate the winter season with richer, darker colors, neons are back with a vengeance this season and are again having their moment in fashion. As seen on the Fall/Winter 2015 runways, the electric shades reminiscent of the 80s are back in a much more sophisticated way—seen in everything from winter tops and bottoms to shoes and accessories, giving us the perfect excuse to give our wardrobes a new season update with super bright colors.

Bright, bold and cheery, neons are always fun to work with—and if styled right, can instantly take your winter look from mundane to head-turning. The key to incorporating neons into your wardrobe this season is to work with neutrals. To wear the trend, start with officewear staples. On a day when you feel like dressing up, ditch your regular black turtleneck and opt for a bright neon pink sweater. Team up the top with a pair of high-waisted trousers or a knee-length pencil skirt in any solid, neutral color—such as beiges, whites, creams, greys, navys, and blacks. Complete the outfit with a pair of solid-colored pumps and you have a chic office outfit.

Remember, neons paired with neutrals is always a fashion do. You can’t go wrong with combinations such as—bright pinks with blacks, neon greens with navys, super bright electric blues with beiges, zesty orange with creams, and so much more. When you feel like dressing up to look girly to the max, opt for extremely feminine pieces such as a navy-colored puffy balloon skirt and wear it teamed up with a super bright neon yellow turtleneck top. Throw on a blazer over and top off the look with a pair of booties.

If you’ve been looking to revamp your style in time for the new season, consider neon-colored outerwear and instantly reinvent your cold-weather wardrobe. Super bright neon colored wool coats, parkas, capes, and faux-fur stoles are among the designers’ favorites this winter—choose your favorite style and flaunt your fashion sense!

If you find the trend nonetheless a bit intimidating, you can always start with accessories! Mix and match neon colored bangles, rings, headbands, clutches, pumps and more and update your look. For a night out on the town, consider pairing a neon bag or a pair of neon stilettos with an all-black or all-white outfit and instantly add finesse to your outfit!
