Complementary colors is an art term that refers to colors directly across from one another on the color wheel. This means that these colors are supposed to look great together. In this spring look, I chose to style a look with shades of blue and a pop of neon orange

I paired a navy Philip Lim for Target a-line skirt with a periwinkle tank from The Limited and a navy striped White House Black Market blazer. I love this blazer because of the detailing. It’s nautical-inspired and perfect for the spring!

I added a pop of color to the look with this neon orange Merona mini crossbody from Target. It’s adorable, it holds the essentials, and it’s easy to carry since it can just drape over your body.
