Get ready for a new color code. The Spring Collections are rolling out in mood-enhancing brights. And we are more than ready for upbeat fashion that lifts our spirits.

Crayola colors may not seem like an easy trend to tout, but even the timid can pick up a perky pullover. Or try a statement bag in a shocking shade. What about a go-to dress in a bold new hue?

For those ready to paint the town, think bright-on-brights or try color-blocking your way through the look. Now is the time to wave away the winter blues and take a walk on the bright side.
