Outfit inspiration: bold brights

Zara trousers, $59.50

Leave it to Zara to brighten even the snowiest of days with their new collection of poppy-colored pants.  It's been weeks since I last went shopping, partially due to an attempt to save money and partially because I just haven't been all that inspired, but I cannot wait to stock up on every one of these adorable pairs.

Color blocking and mixing bold brights were huge on the runways and will be a major trend for Spring.  You can wear these now (or once the snow melts) with nude pumps and neutral layered tops and then mix in some contrasting bright accessories and prints once the weather feels more appropriate.

I plan to take some cues from the runway shots above and pair bright orange trousers with either a deep blue or bright yellow top!  I literally cannot wait, I'm getting giddy as I type thinking of all the combos I can come up with!  Below are some more photos to get you inspired...
