Would you wear next season's controversial trend? I'm still not sure
Blake Lively, Rita Ora and Kim Kardashian have both endorsed this new trend for AW18, and it's dividing opinion. I'm referring to the neon trend. Yep, it's back with a vengeance, after four years on the sideline (it was huge for SS14, and let's not forget last season's Balenciaga sock boots).
Blake opted for a lime green Versace suit while promoting her new film in New York this week, while Kim Kardashian has been exclusively wearing brights for the past couple weeks, from a hot pink Yeezy dress to lemon Versace maxi and even a lime green wig to match her Lamborgini (because why not?).
On the catwalk, Prada, Versace, Marni and Moschino all had flashes of colour in their collections, and now the high-street is following suit, a sure sign that the trend is going to be big next season.
With that in mind, here are a few neon buys that are available to buy now.

I'll be honest, I'm still on the fence with this one, and the head-to-toe look isn't for me - or most people I reckon. That said, perhaps a touch of highlighter pink or lime, on say a pair of earrings or bag, might be a nice way to ease into it without going overboard.
