v-bind:style syntax not working in inline styles

I'm fairly knew to Vue and the whole v-bind thing is throwing me for a loop...

Basically, I'm trying to achieve this syntax, but with Vue's v-bind, since I can't use a variable in an inline CSS style:

<div class="card" style="background-color: {{school.color}}">

Here's my Vue syntax, which I've followed from their documentation, but it's still throwing an error and I can't figure out why? Obviously, it has to be something simple, I just don't fully understand the intricacies of Vue yet!

<div class="card" :style="{ background-color: school.color }">

Any help would be much appreciated!

For object syntax bindings you are binding an object. Thus, the keys must be valid, and need to be quoted unless they are valid unquoted keys. Dashes - are not allowed in unquoted keys, so it fails to compile.

Either of these options will work:

<div class="card" :style="{ 'background-color': school.color }">

or

<div class="card" :style="{ backgroundColor: school.color }">
