There’s going to be lots of colour this summer, and I bought a lovely bright pink dress from Beyond Retro today for my summer wardrobe. I need to make it a bit shorter, but it’s quite thin even though it has sleeves so it will be nice and light for the hotter months.

Ideas for wearing colours:

1) Match clothes, shoes, bags and hosiery etc

2) Layer up the same shade but in different textures

Whilst flicking through the issue of Nylon I bought today, I saw a feature about entire outfits made of one colour.

I hadn’t tried this myself before as it seems quite daunting but now I’m thinking that it could be really fun! Here’s what I could make out of items in my wardrobe (I apologise for the poor image; unfortunately I don’t have a digital camera – yet! my birthday is next week though! – so, I found images of the items from the online shops)


I could also do black, but that’s quite simple – plus TECHNICALLY black is a non-colour anyway. I definitely need more clothes, so I have decided tomorrow I will go shopping.
