It all started in the 1920s with artist Piet Mondrian.

From wikipedia.com

Then in the 1960s, Yves Saint Laurent introduced the color block dress, most certainly inspired by Mondrian’s work.

Next, it appeared in the bold bright 1980s. Just check out these color block flats!

From rubylane.com

You thought those shoes were outrageous. Check out these early 1990s Versace color block boots! (oh yeah, color block style was popular in the 90s too).

From etsy.com

And here we are again. It’s the 2010s and the color block trend is upon us, arguably much cuter this time around, but who knows what fashion bloggers will be saying 20 years from now! haha.

Sure, we can’t wear a Cinderella dress on a random weekday, but there are some themes that work well for everyday wear. One theme  I love is nautical. It is simple, playful, and easy to put together.

From motelrocks.com

All you really need is a combination of blue, white, and red, finished off with the right accessories.

To be perfectly honest, I was so smitten with Spencer’s wardrobe that I didn’t pay much attention to anything else.

First off, wasn’t her cloche (the vintage hat) adorable? And fyi, cloche means “bell” in french.

You can get this similar one here.

Another Spencer item I loved was her military style cardigan.

From abcfamily.com

It’s by Marc Jacobs and you can get it at Nordies for 60% off!

From nordstrom.com

The only other outfit I was gaga over was Mona’s orange polka dot mock two piece dress.  Orange is a forgotten and underrated color in fashion, don’t you think?

From abcfamily.com

I knew the moment I saw it that the dress was from Motel.

From revolveclothing.com

If you don’t like the super tight skirt, here’s another orange polka dot dress I found along the way. :)

Who do you think was the fashion winner this week?
