How to wear colour this season . . .

Would you like to brighten up your look?

Sometimes it can be scary knowing where to start with colour but it’s time to break away from the blacks and browns that are more suited to the winter months.
Adding some fresh, bright colours to your summer wardrobe will get you in the mood for the sunny weather. Why not make the most of the clear skies and longer days while they’re here?
Wearing brights and pastels can make you appear brighter, lighter and more carefree as opposed to black colours that often have a draining effect. You’ll definitely get a lot of compliments if you wear colour this summer maybe for an Easter lunch, a  christening or BBQ in the garden.
But if you’re still nervous about going the whole way, then you can dip your toes into the trend by teaming a pastel coloured top with jeans or simply adding coloured accessories to your outfit. Rest assured that whatever occasions you have coming up this season, you can find the perfect outfit for you at Evans.

Here are our top three suggestions:

Casual

The yellow frill vest looks beautiful with evans belted kickflare jeans which are great for pear shapes as the flare detail balances out your bottom half.
Yellow goes brilliantly with gold – the perfect excuse to wear some statement jewellery like the gold circle cuff.
Finally, complete your outfit with the tan block heel sandals – they’ll last you all summer as you can wear these with anything.

Smart Casual

The Evans turquoise shirred printed top is perfect for day and night. And you can keep your options open with the bottom half by wearing it with white linen trousers that are really versatile for the day or dress up with jeans and heels for a night out.

If you’re going for a smart casual look you can finish the look with the t-bar diamante wedge sandals and the stretch seeded bracelet which compliments the turquoise top.

Evening

Evening occasions are an excuse to dress up so why not try something in a bright print?
The pink strapless printed maxi dress is ultra flattering and looks great teamed with the plait detail wedge sandals to complete the look. If you’re feeling bare on top the white cotton cardigan, is light enough to fold up in your handbag so you don’t need to worry about a coat. White emphasies the colour, rather than a black cardigan that would wash you out.
As it’s party time you need to finish the look with something sparkly like an adjustable pink flower ring. It’s blooming lovely!
