smart Buy... Yellow Accessories Yellow in all its incarnations has been summer’s big hit in ready-to-wear. So it seems designers decided to keep it around to cheer up autumn in the form of eye-poppingly bright accessories. Keep your look current – steer clear of top-to-toe blocking. Instead, inject yellow through bags, pumps and belts.
