It combines the use of two or more blocks of colour in an ensemble. This could be for a top, bottom, tunic, a dress and even a handbag or shoes. Simply it means – creating an outfit by putting areas or blocks of solid color next to each other.
Clothes, shoes, handbags and accessories can all feature color block designs or can make up different blocks of color to be put together for a color block outfit.

Colour Blocked Makeup......you have to be bold to do this...!
Colour blocked hair...that is for some serious daring-soul!
How will colour blocking work for your body type:
- If you are pear shaped, opt for darker colors on the bottom half.
- If you are apple shaped avoid horizontal blocks of color around the stomach area but highlight legs with color blocks created by brightly colored tights.
- If you are hourglass, a color block around the waist is a great way of highlighting it and drawing attention to you womanly figure
- Don’t be shy to experiment. Any color combination is fantastic if you can pull it off properly. Blue, green and orange sounds mad but will look oh-so-pretty.
- Do not combine more than three to four colors. It’s not that it doesn’t look nice but it's not a good sight. Moreover more colors will keep cutting your body shape here and there making it a not so beautiful sight.
- Choose what you want to color block and keep the rest of your look simple. For example, if you opt for a colorblocked bag, go easy on the clothes and shoes and keep your accessories on neutral shades.
- Never ever ever combine two color blocked items. This is the worst thing to do to this trend.
