After finding that I don't actually own a solid yellow piece; I feel the need to brighten my wardrobe with this fabulous spring and summer color. The idea was sparked by a movie that I watched last night, during which one of the main female characters carried a yellow duffle bag throughout and it looked good, even when she changed outfits.

I love the way that a dark blue rinse jean, or the color gray looks with a yellow top. While I will be searching for tops, I would also like to have a maxi, shoes and a great looking bag. While I like black shoes with a yellow dress, I would prefer something a bit more muted, such as some of those in this feature. Taupe, tan or even an metallic would work well. Black can sometimes be a bit overwhelming, since yellow is such a "soft" color. If the choice were black, I'd go for a strappy sandal that wouldn't overpower.
