How to Wear a Bright Crayon Pink Dress

The bright color trend is one of fall's prettiest, and while it's a no-brainer to cheer up a somber fall suit with some lipstick red pumps, a taxi-cab yellow bag, or cobalt chapeau, wearing a full-on fuchsia dress takes a bit more style savvy (and clothing cojones). Under no circumstances make the amateurish mistake of matching your shoes or bag to your dress; and instead of a pairing pink with a predictable black jacket or tights, try rich shades of charcoal and grey. 

The sober tweed coat is a chic counterbalance to the vibrant shade of the dress, while the shiny rubber in the shoes and dark metallic python bag add textural variety. And because bright pink is already such a statement, a chunky watch with a touch of pink is all you need in the way of jewelry - in addition to the classic diamond studs that you already wear with everything.

Where to score the goods:
