Styling Color Blocking This Season
By Mara Lindholm · 23 Jul 2026
Color blocking is back, and this season it feels fresher than ever. Instead of reaching for neutrals, we are leaning into confident pairings that let each piece breathe.
Start with two saturated tones you genuinely enjoy, then anchor them with a quiet third. A grassy green next to a warm coral, grounded by off-white, reads playful without tipping into costume.
The trick is proportion. Keep one color dominant and let the other two punctuate — a bag, a shoe, a scarf. Confidence does the rest.
