From Nudes to Vibrant Hues: These Celebrities Have Added Bold Colors To Their Wardrobe

Let these 'fits be your style guide.

Summer is in full swing, and that means living life in color. While we love nudes, bright hues are leading the way as stars rocked their Barbiecore looks and other statement pieces.

And even if you lean towards more muted tones, you can add a splash of hot pink, vibrant violet, or neon to mix things up. Some of our favorite celebrities have embraced bolder styles in their wardrobe, giving us a complete blueprint of how it's done.

  • La La Anthony

    La La Anthony's multi-colored dress features multiple design elements, including a sexy slit at the tummy, giving it a fun contrast. She is also wearing floral mesh stockings with red pumps. This outfit is too hot to handle!

    Tyler The Creator, or "Felicia," gave us all the color aesthetic before nudes were a no-go. This two-toned pink and green jacket he wore to the NBA Playoffs exemplifies that. Plus, it's from his brand Golf Wang which he launched in 2011 and has since dropped other eye-catching pieces.
