Word on the fashion street is that coral is a hot color for summer. A softer version of orange, coral can actually be worn by most people regardless of skin tone because it is a bluer orange which means it has equal parts warm and cool combined in it.
This color can be worn a variety of different ways, either as a color for your clothing or, if you just want to experiment, as an accent to update your wardrobe. Here are some looks I put together using this trendy summer shade.
