Grey, the 'it' color for fall a few months ago, makes a comeback, but in time for its contrasting season, spring. Demonstrated by the Spring 2009 collection by Christian Siriano of Project Runway fame, gray, highlighted by pops of burnt orange and lime green, is the color for Spring 2009.
These bursts of color are either obvious or subtle. It can be lined into a jacket, or paired with a simple legging. Either way, the evident contrast of the bright color and subdued gray opens the doors for a trendy spring.
