4 Color Trends Women Are Wearing in Paris, Tokyo, and Amsterdam
Even though I love wearing color, I'm no expert at figuring out which hues go best together. There are always those classic pairings (like black and white), but every season introduces fun combinations that are ripe for experimenting. To find fresh color trends, I picked three major cities and delved into what local women are wearing right now—and yes, I came away with some inspiring ideas.
For starters, I noticed two trends in Paris that are on total opposite ends of the spectrum. On one hand, stylish Parisians are combining blue and yellow in fun, spring-ready ways. On the other hand, French women are also loving head-to-toe chocolate brown lately. Which trend is more your style? Scroll down to see examples of these color combos in Paris, as well as the hues that are popping up in Tokyo and Amsterdam. And of course, shop our picks while you're at it!
Paris: Blue and Yellow
Paris: Head-to-Toe Brown
Tokyo: Red and Purple
Amsterdam: Orange and Brown

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
