1. Wild Candy

"Pink, may green and white are even fresher in combination, " says color expert Isabelle Wolf. "The animal print of the skirt breaks through ironically, but skilfully Olivia's outfit and says: I can go wild!"

That's the look

1) Plain white T: Sleeveless blouse (Gina Tricot, around 15 Euro), 2) Gold piece: Shiny bangle (River Island via www.asos.de, around 17 Euro), 3) Pink Lady: Jacket in Lollipop color (Topshop, around 72 euros), 4) Is in your hand: punched wallet (River Island, around 22 euros), 5) Very Bitish: Loafers with tassel (Massimo Dutti, around 100 euros), 6) Safari: Rock with Animal -Print (Edith & Ella, around 125 Euro)

2. Businesslook

"The strong complementary colors orange and royal blue radiate energy and reinforce each other. Due to the frosting pink on Solange's lips and shoes, the Color Clash loses its hardness and gets a playful touch. Important: The color must appear at least twice, so it looks intentional! "Color expert Isabelle Wolf

That's the look

1) Clockwork: Orange Sleeveless Top (Modström, around 79 euros), 2) Buttoned: High-necked coat (Sisley, around 194 euros), 3) Queen of the stone age: XL ring with large stones (Accessorize, around ten euros), 4) Everything under control: bag with rivets (Benetton, around 47 euros), 5) Gelackt: Pumps with Leo lining (xyxyx via www.amazon.de, around 40 euros), 6) Straight: trousers with crease (Laurel, around 179 euros)

3. Strong accents

"Gaudy orange adds a touch of extravagance, innovation and disarray to the classic look of blouse, marmoset and men's hat. Who, like Chiara, chooses such an eye-catcher, wants to attract attention - without having to show too much skin. "Color expert Isabelle Wolf

That's the look

1) Decorating: chain set with pendants (Topshop, around 16 euros), 2) Airy: blouse with patch pocket (Vero Moda, around 27 euros), 3) Chapeau! Hat with wide brim (Topshop, around 36 euros), 4) Ornamental: Long necklace with medallion (Conley's, around 30 euros), 5) Oh Boy: Men's wristwatch (Nixon, around 150 euros), 6) On the light : Shoulder bag in contrasting colors (Deichmann, around 20 Euro), 7) High Society: High-front Peep-Toes made of lace (Deichmann Blogger Collection by Caroline Blomst, limited edition, around 35 Euro), 8) Long Legs: Classic Marlene pants (Bon Prix to 17 euros)

beacon

"With this outfit, the actress makes it clear that she does not want to be overlooked! The combination of three signal colors in firefighter red, electric blue and bright yellow is just colorful - the extravagant cut of the dress is completely submerged. Less would have been more. "Color expert Isabelle Wolf

That's the look

1) Swinging red: Peplum dress (Four Flavor on www.zalando.de, around 90 Euro), 2) Articulated: Golden wristwatch (Bering, around 129 Euro), 3) Decorated: Handbag with chain straps and gemstones (Tosca Blu, around 148 Euro), 4) Lemon butterflies: strappy stilettos in yellow shades (Peperosa, around 140 Euro)

Pastel Passion

"Pastel shades can be optimally combined with each other. They make her wearer look extremely feminine. Straightforward cuts, slightly tanned skin, extremely withdrawn make-up and subtle jewelery underline this effect. Kim is in there, which is in color. "Color expert Isabelle Wolf

That's the look

1) Form-fitting: Strapless strapless top (Pull & Bear, around 13 euros), 2) Feminine: Knee-skirt of chiffon (Betty Barclay, around 40 euros), 3) Beautiful pumps in apricot (Fornarina, around 118 euros), 4) Sleek : Smartphone in silver (HTC One mini, around 449 euros)

Rocky elegance

"Instead of a blazer in classic black, the outfit is lightened with airy white, which looks particularly youthful to the faded skinny jeans in Bleu. Everything is rounded off by extravagant chewing gum pink studded booties. The statement of Jennifer's look: stylish, carefree, sexy, young! "Color expert Isabelle Wolf

That's the look

1) Simple: Shirt blouse with breast pockets (Esprit, around 50 euros), 2) Top Gun: aviator sunglasses with extravagant straps (Orsay, around nine euros), 3) Puristic: Blazer with hip open lapels (Vila, around 65 euros), 4 ) Sparkling: bracelet with gemstones (Pilgrim, around 40 euros), 5) Snake print: bag with gold details (Buffalo on www.mirapodo.de, around 40 euros), 6) Braided: open-toe sandals (Donna Piu, around 137 Euro), 7) Destroyed: Jeans in used look (Review on fashionid.de, around 50 Euro)
