Friday's Fancies: Rock the Block!

Stop us any day of the week and ask us what one of our favorite trends is and you'll be guaranteed that one of us is going to say color blocking. And we got so lucky, because for today's Friday's Fancies {av} invited us to a block party...a COLOR BLOCKING party that is! We got so inspired that we needed to show you three different boards all about color blocking. There's sure to be something for everyone, whether it be a dress, top or even a bag! Hope you enjoy!
