Spring Color Category: Mellow Yellow

What comes to mind when you think of the color yellow? 🤔"happiness", "sunshine", "warmth", "cheer", "bananas" and sometimes even "playfulness". There are lots of actual theories (scientifically derived ones) to support the “effects” of yellow on our minds and our mental health.

Me, I’ve avoided the color for years because “low-key” and the color yellow are not even in the same category. It kinda announces your presence as soon as you walk into a room. However 😀, in the spirit of living boldly, breaking outta my shell, and embracing my awesomeness, I’m embracing all things yellow. The color is trending this spring and has tricked down from the runway and made it’s way to the streets. So between my recent DARE TO LIVE FREE moments and SimplyCyn’s colorful portrayal of life (check out her feed), I was inspired.

As I take on this Spring color trend, I’ve put together six outfits all containing some yellow. Whether you’re looking to sport the shade at work, church, brunch, spring wedding, or a day out chilling, you can make the color work..

Also, I’ve got this beautiful yellow fabric that I think will look great as paper-bag pants. I can’t wait to make it and share with you guys. It’ll be my very first DIY post here on the blog.🤞🏾

So what's the moral of the story? Try that new thing! You probably shouldn't go overboard like me on your first try 🤷🏽. Just dip your toe in a little.
