NEON-Sense!

BOMBAYPOLITAN is obsessing over the neon trend! HOT Pinks, BRIGHT Oranges , FLUORESCENT Greens <3 Sadly a lot of you lovely fashionistas shy away from this fab style statement following a myth that neon's suit only white n pale complexions! We beg to differ! As a matter of fact Indian skin with its earthy n peachy undertones can carry off bright electric colours with sheer ease!   

Though the neon trend seems a bit daunting, it's actually a lot easier to pull off keeping in mind a few rules!
DO'S: Keep It Simple- Contrast is key. Wear neon's with neutrals so that you don't look like an extra from an 80's music video. 
Take it slow- Neon trend can be a bit tricky to carry off..so if you are feeling a bit shy , start slow. carry a neon bag or neckpiece with your normal outfit so just that you get comfortable with the colors Accessorize - Neon accessories add the perfect pop of colour to any outfit. Watch n wear- Make sure to pick a shade of neon that will compliment your skin tone. Click a picture of yourself before walking out!!
DON'T: Full neon!- Bright clothing + Bright accessories + Bright makeup = FASHION DISASTER!DO NOT Colour block opposing neon's. neon pink jacket+ Neon green Tee+ neon yellow shorts = BAD IDEA!DO NOT Wear neon pieces with a lot of detailing. Keep it simple n  most importantly

DO NOT BE AFRAID!!! its time to play with pop colours..have fun!


PS-  NEON accessories coming your way only at BOMBAYPOLITAN... watch out!! XO
