For fall/winter 2011/2012 we’ve moved on from the bright color blocking looks to jewel tones. Still very strong and colorful, but with a little bit more warmth and sophistication in it.
Amethyst, sapphire, emerald, ruby, garnet and citrine are some of the jewel-inspired shades you’ll see this fall. Especially the amethyst colors rocked the international catwalks at Gucci, D&G, Alberta Ferretti and Versace.
Combine this shade with other rich colors and you’ll look & feel bejeweled!
Afraid you might end up looking like a purple Teletubby? Just go for a purple accessory like a clutch bag or a small belt.
