How to Wear… Colour

July 29, 2008

For someone that has been known to have a very colourful wardrobe in the past, I was shocked & disturbed when I took a glance inside my closet yesterday and found a whole lotta grey & black… and not much else. When did my wardrobe morph from fun & bright & full of variety to corporate & booooring? Am I in a winter rut, or is this something more sinister? Have I ‘forgotten’ how to wear colour? Eeek!

Whatever the reason, it’s time to incorporate colour back into my clothing collection, and out of fear that my lovely readers might be in the same boat, I’ve come up with some creations to show you how to bring colour back into your life — and wear it with panache!

Be bold! Be bright! Be beautiful!

YAY for colour! I can feel another shopping trip coming on…

Rainbow love & inspiration,

    Mandy - my wardrobe is usually in colour order, but there ain’t no colours anymore! Maybe my black/ grey clothes ATE my colourful clothes?!

    Lara - All I heard was ’shopping spree’! YES!

    Emma - with dresses, I always go the colourful option actually, its the one area that hasn’t become overrun with darkness… So proud of you for going for the colourful option, the dress sounds beautiful! xxx

    Its so easy to fall into that rutt of buying black because its easy, but a splash of vibrant colour, makes you feel fresh and free!!
