Our outfits were focused on the popular trend of wearing different bold colors and patterns together. We both added our personal twist to the classic black and white look by adding royal blue. Royal blue is one of our favorite colors to wear, because it looks good on every skin and hair color! Laila wore a high low, black and white cheetah print top, with a striped blue, black and white scarf. I wore a black and white geometric tank top with a blue, black and white patterned sweater, and blue jeans. Wearing these three colors together definitely creates an eye catching outfit.
Leighton Meester’s bright floral outfit is perfect for spring, and it’s a great way to get inspiration for more outfits to wear out in the sun this spring and summer.
