Brighten up your wardrobe with the neon collection of ballet flats from Tieks by Gavrieli. I've got up-close photos of Pop Pink, Outrageous Orange, Unmellow Yellow, Galactic Green and Ultraviolet.
The neon collection from Tieks is BACK! If you've been thinking about getting a pair of neon Tieks, now is your chance. I'm showing you all four colors and how to style them below! UPDATE: Ultraviolet Tieks are the newest addition to the Boutiek and I'm adding photos and information here. Check out my full post about Ultraviolet Tieks for more photos and side-by-side color comparisons too.
If you know me, you know I'm a big Tieks fan. These foldable designer ballet flats have been my go-to shoe for almost 2 years now and I love every single pair I own. As I described in my full review of Tieks, they're the only brand of flats that I can wear all day long in total comfort, without getting blisters or red marks. They're also so versatile!
I first heard about Tieks in 2013, but didn't take the plunge and get a pair until 2015. I can't tell you how many times I wish I'd bought a pair sooner. Especially after seeing photos of the neon collection that was originally released in 2013. Pop Pink, Outrageous Orange, Galactic Green and Unmellow Yellow were a limited release and they became prized possessions to those who owned them. Like many, I hoped that one day Tieks would bring them back and now they have! Back by popular demand, the neon collection is here and I couldn't help but order all four pairs on the day they were released.
Neon Tieks Ballet Flats
My neon Tieks arrived super quick thanks to Tieks ultra-fast free shipping and I had them in my hot little hands just 48 hours after ordering. They came in their signature Tiek blue box and with a special, limited edition multi-colored flower (to see what else comes in a Tieks box, check out my Tieks review).
Tieks said that neon Tieks may be brighter than they appear and they were not lying! They are bright, bold and absolutely stunning. The neon collection is made from full-grain, Italian leathers that are saturated with fluorescent colors, then coated with a patent finish. I'm usually an 8.5 or 9 in most shoes and every pair of Tieks I own is size 9 (this includes classics, patents, and prints; I don't have any vegan Tieks), so I stuck with a 9 in the neon collection and they fit perfectly.

It's a little difficult to truly capture the beauty of these bright hues. I'm not sure my fancy DSLR camera really shows the full color saturation in some shots, so I'm going to show you quite a few photos so you can see these neon flats in different lighting scenarios and against different color backgrounds.

Let's talk about how to style your neon Tieks
First up, let's look at Pop Pink since these were probably the most coveted of the 4 neon colors. These are so vibrant! If you're a Lilly Pulitzer fan, these are going to be a must for your wardrobe. They go perfectly with so many of my Lilly pieces.
Like my other Tieks, I think these are super versatile. They add that perfect pop of color, even to dressier outfits.
I really wasn't sure if Outrageous Orange was going to be a great color for me, but I decided to order them since Tieks has an amazing return policy where you can return or exchange unworn shoes in their original condition at any time. But, as soon as I unboxed them I knew they'd be staying with me. They pair nicely with a lot more than I originally thought they would.
Again these are bright and bold! Think construction cone orange or maybe even the color of a hunter's vest. As a University of Florida alumni, I plan on rocking these during football season even if they aren't true Florida orange. They're just that fabulous. Above I have on a deep purple top and jeans and they coordinate well with my colorful bracelets.
Galactic green is another must if you love Lilly Pulitzer. They're a dead-on match to several of my outfits, like these Lilly shorts.
The glowing green hue is such a conversation starter. You can pair them with other bold colors or neutrals for a bright punch of color.
Last, but certainly not least, is Unmellow Yellow. These are just SO fun! Think of your classic yellow highlighter and you'll imagine the color just right.
I love these paired with other bold colors like royal blue and aqua. They are completely awesome in my eyes.

You can only purchase the neon collection directly from Tieks. I'm not sure when they'll be gone again, so be sure to get them while you can if you're interested.

Great post about your neon Tieks, I love how you style them, casual yet fun. I love all your posts about all your amazing Tieks but I had to comment on this post because my collection of Tieks now includes a pair of neon Tieks. I treated myself to the pop pink. I had to laugh cuz there's a warning on the Tieks website stating these neon Tieks may be brighter than they appear. When I opened the box and saw them for the first time in person I knew exactly what they meant. They are so bright and the picture doesn't capture the true brightness of the neon pink. I hope I can rock mine as good as you rock yours.
