There’s nothing quite like a splash of color in your wardrobe to get you into the summer spirit. Whether it’s a hot top, a patterned skirt or a flashy sunhat, there are plenty of ways to get some color back into your life. Tuck away the drab blacks, greys and browns of winter and embrace this season’s fantastic colour palette.
Do you know what colors suit you? Depending on your skin tone and hair color, there are likely to be some colours that work better for you than others. Get some objective advice on the colours that work for you – listen for compliments from friends and family, and get advice from shop assistants if you’re buying on the high street. Once you know which colours are right for you – and which other colours complement them – you can start shopping!
This season, there are plenty of bright, stand-out colours to choose from. Neon colours are still around, as are acid tones of orange, yellow and pink, giving you lots of opportunity to bring your look right up to date. You can find these colours used as single block colours in vest tops or cropped trousers, and in patterned tunics, leggings and more. Or more simply, opt for color in a hat, scarf, belt or bag – coloured accessories can give an older outfit a summer boost. Click here to see more womens chinos from Cotton Traders.
Shoes are another great way to add colour to your style. Look for colored trainers, baseball shoes or deck shoes and choose funky coloured heels or flats to add something different. There’s also a lot of colour choice in dresses and knitwear this season. Don’t assume you won’t need a cardigan or ladies jacket from Cotton Traders because we’re heading for summer – the weather is notoriously difficult to predict, and even if you’re heading off to warmer countries, a good cover-up is essential for cooler evenings.
Color is everywhere you look this season, which means it’s accessible and affordable – two of the best words in the fashion dictionary. Whether you’re completely replacing your wardrobe, or you’re just looking for one or two key pieces to freshen up your style, you’ll find plenty of choice both on the high street and online. And there are still bargains to be had and sale pieces to snap up. You don’t have long to prepare – summer really is just around the corner, so head out and put some colour in your life today!
