Colour Block your wardrobe

Colour blocking made easy with Jack & Jones and John Smedley at Hype Direct

The art of colour blocking  is a major summer trend right now so we were pleased to see many of the Olympics teams sporting the trend throughout the London 2012 Olympic Games, both professionally and socially.

Colour blocking is all about creating a statement using bold, bright blocks of colour, for example a combining a bright pair of trousers with a contrasting coloured t-shirt. If you don’t feel brave enough to copy the orange and blue combination seen on the Netherlands team or rap icon Kanye West, Hype Direct shows you how to copy the look using more subtle colour combinations.

These Jack & Jones Twisted Men’s Shorts in Princess Blue are perfect to ease yourself into the trend and can be worn with a number of different colours and styles of T-Shirt or knitwear.

To add another block of colour, John Smedley offers a wide variety of jumpers and cardigans to complete the look. (Pictured Left)
