New York Fashion Week may already be winding down, but the city’s street style continues to set the stage for the trends to know (and try!) right now. From classic trench coats, to bold animal print, the list of must-have styles continues to grow as fashion month unfolds.

There are a plethora of color stories happening in street style thus far, too. Copenhagen and New York showgoers alike proved that all-over brown is a trend worth investing in, and now it’s clear that primary and secondary colors like kelly green, fire-engine red, and Pantone’s 2020 color of the year, classic blue, are also becoming street style mainstays worn color-blocked together.

Ahead are 7 colorful pieces to help you get in on the trend.
