Spring Break
Fashion: 'Lite-Brite'

Issue date: 4/29/09 Section: Culture
Draw you inspiration from the classic children's toy in order to tap into one of the key trends for spring and summer. Neon hues are more popular than ever this year, and the kid-like playfulness of it all will allow you to drift back to the carless days of youth-when neon hair scrunchies were the best accessory out there! To begin, start with a simple sun dress that still has a pop of color, then add punchy accessories for color. This is the easiest way to create the neon look without going overboard. If you're daring, take on a neon yellow tank and electric blue shorts, finishing white Wayfarers and some bright high tops! Looking to go totally 80s? Neon streetwear headphones will make you truly Lite Brite!
For more summer fun, show yourself off in a neon bikini, surfer-girl style.
