Leave it to Blake Lively to make one of the trickiest shades on the color wheel look absolutely flawless. Hitting the red carpet at the American Ballet Theatre Spring Gala, she opted for a citrine Oscar de la Renta gown paired with a tousled ponytail, nude Stuart Weitzman sandals and turquoise earrings. While the actress would look good in a trash bag, she pulls off the difficult hue with aplomb thanks to her sun-kissed summer skin. Whether you get a professional spray tan or just add a drugstore product to your routine, a subtle glow is a surefire way to ensure a yellow ensemble reads radiant rather than ridiculous. (And you might want to jump on it, as yellow is one of the season’s biggest trends.)
