The Most Popular Colours

All of us have those failsafe colours which make up the bulk of our wardrobe. Once we find a colour which suits it’s easy to fall into a bit of a style rut and not experiment with colour as much as we could. For many of us, the thought of injecting some bold and vibrant colour into our wardrobe is a little daunting. However, that’s not to say that we shouldn’t liven up our look. If we know what colours we should be looking for to compliment our skin tone and hair colour, then it makes it easier to be a bit more adventurous!

If you’re lucky enough to still have a summer holiday approaching, this can be a great time to experiment with your style. Knowing that you are in a new and unfamiliar place gives you the freedom to try something a little different. Swimwear is often a good place to start – there’s nowhere better to try a bright, bold colour than on the beach! Opting for a vibrant aqua can really accentuate your tan, or if you are conscious about your figure, a floral wrap-round swimsuit can be very flattering.

For a colourful daytime look why not team a printed maxi dress with some neutral accessories? Pink has been a popular colour this season and is very wearable for most skin tones. Don’t forget to neglect your accessories. If you are opting for a colourful statement number then choose plain accessories but you can also use bright accessories to enhance a neutral outfit.

If you have an olive skin tone or dark hair, then orange is a good colour for you. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but, on the right person, it can look great. You can always tone it down a little by opting for a coral or peach shade if you like.

So, don’t be afraid to try something a little different and inject some colour into your look! Summer may be coming to an end but that doesn’t mean we can’t bring a splash of colour into our autumnal wardrobe.
