Katja’s Picks

I admit. I lived the neon craze already once, and I had no interest going back. And with that I mean taking it to the crazy 80’s level. But when my husband (yeah, the ultimate trendsetter, said with all sarcasm) bought neon-striped Puma-sneakers a while back, I knew that I had to bring the neon out. I however, still prefer it in smaller dosages. My top neon picks. Melie Bianco ‘Callie’ Neon Trim Messenger Bagicon has just the right amount of neon yellow. These Neon sunglasses icon are only $12 but I think they should borrow Marty’s DeLorean and go back to the 80’s. However, if you want fast and cheap way to be trendy, and got the guts to pull these bad boys off, please be my guest. For home I am all over the simple light bulb as a hanging lamp-trend, and to kick it up a notch, this Neon Green Light Cord w/ Giant Silver Globe Bulb mixed both two trends and I’m trying to think oh where I could add this. My absolutely favorite is the Graham Leather Triple Strand Wrap in grey and neon yellow. Love, love, love it! Puma has several sneaker-styles that pop some nice neon color. They make me want to play some Whitney Houston and Donna Summer and dance for good ol’ times sake. The H&M necklace is cheap and for $14.95 you’ll get a nice pop of a color. It’s close enough neon to be trendy.
