There’s something about this time of year, perched right on the cusp of spring, that makes us want to breathe a bit of life back into our world. Sartorially speaking, one of the easiest ways to do this is by leaning into color. A vivid, saturated shade is vibrant and mood-boosting, especially paired with complementary hues. Ahead, four spring-forward takes on colorblocking that make our case.

CITRON + TEAL

“Pantsuit” sounds buttoned-up. But what if we told you it was done in a light lemon-lime hue, with a slim, sexy cut—and worn with nothing but a teal bra underneath? Pair it with white sneakers and you’ve got yourself an outfit that’s more sleek than staid.

YELLOW + BRONZE

A layered look is a low-stakes way to experiment with color pairings: Here, a banana-yellow knit peeks out from beneath a bronzy shirtdress. Chunky gold jewelry adds a touch of polish, and a bucket bag with punchy orange stripes is complementary but not too matchy.

PETAL + PEACH + WATERMELON

A sheer, sheeny blouse paired with a swishy silk skirt is unapologetically feminine, especially when it’s all (down to the sweetly scooped bra) done in shades of pink. To keep things from skewing saccharine, accent with hits of bright Kelly green.

BLACK + ROYAL BLUE + CREAM

If your go-to color palette ranges from jet to ebony, try a black sweater with a band of royal blue over undyed denim wide-legs. Thick-framed sunglasses and thick-strapped sandals echo the black of the cardigan—as does that ladylike top-handle on your vintage Chanel bag.
