Have you noticed that all the men’s fashion magazines are cramming the trend of bright-colored pants down every man’s throat? Not that I don’t like bright pants on men, but I don’t know how many REAL men actually feel comfortable wearing bright pants, as evidenced by the less than a dozen men I’ve seen wear this trend on the street. The thing GQ isn’t telling you is that this is a difficult trend to pull off, even for women. In order for you not to resemble a clown, you need to keep in mind that there should be no more than one bright article of clothing per outfit. Also, going all out on your first try is not something I recommend. If you want to wear more color in your wardrobe, start by choosing darker shades of a color you already like. And if you still need more time to think about adding a pop of color to your wardrobe, accessories are your best bet for getting acquainted with this trend. Here are a few accessories that can help you get started:
