"Juicy" Couture

Colors have the proven capability of affecting our moods. So why not improve your mood and your wardrobe this summer by wearing clothes in shades taken straight from the fruit? The quickest way to revamp your summer wardrobe (and your attitude) is to wear hues of lemon yellow, lime green, and tangerine orange.

Lemon shades are the easiest to style because they work almost like a neutral shade. Yellow works with all shades of browns, and look especially good with pink shades.  Bright yellow is a fabulous contrast to dark skin. This quilted sundress by Nick & Mo looks perfectly paired with a wide brown belt.

Lime green is the trickiest of the citrus colors to wear, but it looks great on fair-skinned women with dark hair. Pair lime green with bright white or light tan for a nice-looking, safe bet. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, highlight the lime with bright blue accessories.

Tangerine orange is my favorite mood-enhancing color because I just feel chipper when wearing it. Channel my good mood by sporting a fun tangerine tank, like this casually cool bird print one from Mynt Star. Orange shades and olive skin tones compliment each other fabulously. Black, dark brown, and turquoise are all wise color choices to wear with orange.

Don't just stick to clothing to fulfill this citrus trend. There is a plethora of accessories at local retailers to get your juices flowing! You can even get in on the citrus trend with colorful makeup shades for eyes, cheeks, and nails.
