Go For Bold
The summers neutral trends and tones of beige, cream, camel and white are great but sometimes they can leave us longing for just a little bit of colour. There is no better time to wear eye popping colours like fuschia pink, lime green and electric blue as the sun will illuminate the colours making them glow even more. Bright colours have a tropical feel about them, think tropical flowers, tropical fruit and green rain forests. They are just the right colours to get you in the mood for summer holidays or some great summer weather in the UK.
For those that are a little wearing of wearing bright colours, there are some great brightly coloured accessories, why not try a bright yellow clutch bag with your little black dress for a bit of a change. You could also wear some really eye catching red shoes with your ultra versatile beige shift dress. Prints are also a great way to wear bold and bright colours. Look for a white background if you want a slightly more subtle look, a black background for a more distinct look and a print that mixes lots of bright colours for a really eclectic looks. Floral prints work really well in all sorts of colours and never really go out of fashion but there are a range of other alternatives around including abstract and tribal prints. For the bravest of brave, try combining prints for an outfit that if chosen carefully will look absolutely amazing.
If you are a colour lover,you could always try block colours. As before combining with white for a subtle effect, black for a striking look and clashing colours for the brightest look of all. Try orange and pink, purple and yellow or green and red for some amazingly bright outfits that will catch everyone’s eye.
If you are wearing an outfit with large areas of one colour, for the best effect you should try and pick colours that really compliment your colouring. Generally if you have a warm skin tone, you will look best in reds, oranges and yellows. If you have a cool skin tone blues, purples and pinks will look best on you.
