Add some flower power to your wardrobe this season. Pretty pastel covers a broad spectrum of colours & flatters all skin types.
When wearing pastel think of subtle glamour & retro-chic looks. The key to wearing pastel is to add a personal touch to your look and should be worn in moderation.
Pastel shades are easy to wear & add elegance to a simple outfit by turning it from drab to fab. Pastel colours range from cream to caramel, peach to pink, blue to lavender and mint green.
This trend was made popular this season by Carven, Céline, Chloés & Rochas who sent models down the catwalk wearing pastel. Pastels shades are all year round colours that can be incorporated with other pieces from your wardrobe.
Some people say, never to wear more than two pieces of pastel together but Faith has broken that rule by wearing peach pastel head to toe. Faith paired her peach pastel mid calf polka dot pencil skirt with a peach pastel sweet heart neckline blouse & pastel studded heels for a stylish all over pastel look. If you aren’t ready to go full-on wearing pastel pieces, you can start small by incorporating pastel accessories with your outfits for a sweet but not too sweet look.
