Although there is a classic Americana revival going on in fashion right now, that doesn't mean it has to be completely boring. Some conservative, traditional shapes are showing up in retina-burning neon shades just to shake things up. Although these are not the neons of the 80's, since they are popping up on some lady like silhouettes like shift dresses, structured bags, tailored blazers and more. To steal the spotlight, wear a bold dress paired with skintone shoes and a neutral handbag. Or use some neon shoes or a clutch paired with a little black dress to keep things interesting in your wardrobe without causing a huge shakeup. Don't worry about looking like you stepped out of the 80's, unless you're pairing your neon with a paint-splattered t-shirt, layered socks or parachute pants.
