How to Wear Bright Colors This Spring
Every woman needs a bright slinky maxi dress in their closet this spring. When I saw this one at Zara a few weeks back, I had to have it. I love its vibrant color (which is very on-trend this spring) and the fact that I can dress it up for date night or down for comfy weekends at home with Naiya.
