Feeling pretty in pastels

Pastels have to be one of the most wearable trends!

11 September 2014

Less sugary sweet than a couple of seasons ago, pastels a little more glamorous but still satisfyingly girly. And there are so many ways to wear them. You can gently clash your spearmint with your lilac, for example, or dare to wear the same shade from head to toe. Pale blue can add a pop of colour to classic black and white, or you can toughen up the trend with a biker jacket in a pastel shade.

A rule of thumb: the sleeker the shape, the more sophisticated the look.

What we love about this trend: it’s perfect for spring, but pastels work in all the other seasons too, and winter pastels are always a hit with us.
