Neon - while we can

While colour and trend forecasters pinned neon brights as the hot colours this Fall, no one predicted the down turn in financial markets and the global terror gloom.

So while we're not very much in the mood for dressing in neon colours, we might as well feast on them with our senses, before we don the upcoming muted hues and matte material for Spring. So I've made a selection of some of my drool-worthy bright pieces.... scroll for more.



First up these gorgeous lime green & hot pink silk column-dresses Temperly London, really gives me goosebumps. I want to own 'em, wear 'em, sashay in 'em just plain live in 'em! Works of art i say.


Next up are the Tom Binns necklace and cuff. The neon colour gives the otherwise classic shapes a uniquely modern edge, while the silver & crystal accompaniments make a sight for sore eyes.

Marc Jacobs went all out with the Glitter shoulder bag. Crafted in hot metallic pink leather, the shoulder bag comes roomy for when you need to carry your world with you.

There's even a Plum colourway!

See more covetable neon looks? Give me a holler.

So if you thought neon was so 80s in a very passe manner, look again.
