Thankfully, when it comes to this trend there is no cookie cutter method to making it work which means that you’re always fully in control of what what you wear and how you wear it. If you’re in search of some mid-week inspiration, here are four simple ways to up your colour blocking game.
A total clash
This colour blocking combination is about owning the colour wheel. The rule remains; the more outrageous the colour coordination, the better. Play with greens and reds, magenta and mustard and while the temps climb, team together light chiffons and knits.

Double up on denim
If subdued tonal dressing is more for you, then a classic denim duo is what you’ll love. You can easily pull this look off with contrasts of acid washed and dark denim ensembles.
