Colorblock

Leelee Sobieski stepped out at the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC donning a chic and edgy look — structured leather jacket, neutral basics, and colorblock Pierre Hardy wedges — we can't wait to re-create. Leelee's classic black-and-white ensemble was sleek on its own, but her piped trench-meets-leather jacket and tricolor wedges took it to new heights. From red-carpet galas to running errands around town, we are smitten with Leelee's fashion-forward style. Take a cue from this trendsetter and layer a unique leather topper over a white top and black skinny jeans, then complete the look with her exact wedges, which transition perfectly from sunny days to cooler nights.

Along with Jessica Alba, Shay Mitchell is one of Brad Goreski's clients — be sure to catch our chat with the stylist if you haven't already. The latest outfit Brad put the Pretty Little Liars actress in for her Seventeen magazine cover fete is a pink-and-orange colorblock dress by LOFT. Unfortunately the dress, $89.50, is sold out online, but it is still available in select LOFT stores. Shay's bold look inspired us to go on a hunt for our favorite pink and orange frocks. There's everything from one-shoulder numbers to flowy maxi dresses to structured shifts like Shay's. There's also this pink and purple colorblock shift dress very similar to Shay's. If you're feeling extra daring, pair your colorblock dress with bright blue pumps like the actress did. Or, for a more simple look, go with nude or tan. To get Shay's look, shop similar dresses below.

Red and pink are undeniably evocative of Valentine's Day, and while it's a bold color combination to wear, it can also look incredibly chic — remember Sarah Jessica Parker's epic red and pink Prabal Gurung colorblock look? We love seeing bright pops of color together no matter what time of year it is, but this may be the perfect time to try a fun, flirty, dichromatic look. Feeling festive?

Colorblocking is a trend that continues to catch my eye, both in interior design and fashion. There are so many creative ways to experiment with this look. Whether you're mixing colorful solids or choosing a piece that balances several colors without introducing a print, colorblocking can be an interesting way to emphasize the way colors interact with one another.

If the Fall runway collections from Rag & Bone, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Jil Sander are any indication, now is the time to invest in all things sporty — think body-conscious racerback tanks; slouchy, relaxed outerwear; and cool, graphic colorblock prints. We can also look to celebrities to glean some inspiration on the trend: Solange Knowles put a louche spin on the trend by pairing a colorblock tee with a pair of slim-fitting trousers while Kate Winslet dazzled in a supersexy Stella McCartney sheath dress, artfully contoured to streamline the silhouette. Additionally, Elisha Cuthbert made a sleek statement in a short-sleeved BCBG Max Azria frock. The sexy sportif trend is easy to achieve; just stick to modern, minimalist shapes, brightly hued colorblocking, and athletic-inspired silhouettes. Ready to get physical?
