It’s Cinco de Mayo, the perfect day to kick back with good friends and toast the arrival (FINALLY) of warm weather. So while you’re at it, why not celebrate independence from a ho-hum wardrobe by seasoning your outfits with the traditional colors of Mexico? We’re not talking about draping yourself in a serape poncho or anything, but instead, take a pretty yellow frock and punch it up with pops of coral red accessories with a twist of lime. If edgy neutrals are more your style, add spice with deep green glam sun glasses, high heeled sandals and a chunky bangle, finished off with an ikat patterned chili red handbag. You’ll be one HOT tamale!
