Something You Might Like
With April coming to an end, it feels as if summer is just around the corner. With style changes, it makes sense to think about colour. Whenever I hear someone say they want to buy something to add a pop of colour to their infamous wardrobe, the first tone that is quite common is red or yellow. Even though these colours can be vibrant and exceptional. I have to disagree with those options. Some people prefer a softer tone. And without stepping into the world of a classic black item. Let’s try something a little sweater with a bit of a kick to it.

For summer, indulge in a nice creamy slice of peach cake. Followed by a delicious round of sass. The colour of this cake makes me think of the soft and elegant tone that is peach and how it’s really a very practical colour for summer time. You can dress it up or down and even wear it all season long. It matches a lot of other colours and is universally flattering on all skin tones. When it comes to a trendy colour, I always find bold and screaming colours like neon can be overwhelming and honestly, horrible to the eye. But Peach has a romantic texture that makes it fun and a great alternative to beige or another neutral.

Peach is a colour that is named for the pale colour of the exterior flesh of a peach fruit. This name may also be substituted for peachy. Like the colour apricot, the colour is lighter and has been formulated primarily to create a pastel of colours a pastel palette of colours for interior design. Peach can also be described as a pale pink. Many variations exist and some are different than others.

To some people it is decadent and charming. And to others, it can be a bit moody. Meaning, not everyone will like it. Or may find it to be difficult to match your outfits. But the best way to add this colour into your life is by introducing separate pieces so your other tones don’t feel so left out. I think a lot of people haven’t gotten to know peach yet. I mean if you did you would find that peach is electric and a great listener when mixing your garments in with that timeless colour. The only way you will know if peach can work for you, is if you introduce yourself. Going to a chic party isn’t fun if you can’t be friendly to other colours. And peach feels just as awkward as midnight blue, or blue berry jam.

So, quit being shy people, and say hello. That is the true test in seeing if you and peach are going to work. Otherwise, you will just be stuck in a blah colour wheel forever and who really wants that?

How do you wear peach?

Bringing the beauty of nature into your wardrobe, Olive green has burst onto the scene for spring & summer.
Warm and natural, soothing and serene, it’s the perfect tone to really take your overall mood up a notch. This tone is everlasting, with earthy textures of an intense forest to a ripe olive at the bottom of a gleaming clear bottle. We instantly feel protected, relaxed, and even inspired.
 |
| Photo: Olive green Pinterest |
Colours can really effect how we are feeling on a daily basis. If you look at adds, anytime happy music is played and the images are carried away with explosive colours, it creates this excited uplifting sensation. It has the same effect with certain tones that make us trigger a natural emotion.
 |
| Photo: Nature Tones Getty |
The amount of luxe in the hue adds a note of luxury to your style. Olive green brings depth of flavour to a fabulous accessory, the colour goes with everything and adds a classy feel to the colour scheme that is always stylish and up to date, with a mixture of a retro element.
No matter what style tribe you subscribe to, there’s an olive-green outfit that will speak volumes to you. From bold trend-forward outfits to polished classics and everything in between, you can definitely find something in this hue that will inspire you to mix the green shade into your spring and summer outfit rotation.
 |
| For the bold, mix other colours while playful directing the spotlight on olive green, with this chic top. |
If you are looking into introducing olive into your style inspiration with stronger colours already in the mix, think of it as a base colour. Introduce shades of green like shoes, bags, jewellery, so that you bridge the mixture of colours together.
 |
| When you already love the hue, try a green hat. It instantly takes your style to a dressy place. |
Adding a stand out piece, like a bold olive-green jacket, or bag, will really have a statement making look. It is so simple, yet you keep your eyes directed to that gorgeous hue. In turn, it has this regal and powerful explosion of chic influences.
You may find this colour of green to be a bit intimidating. It really isn’t when you just pair it bit by bit. Unless, you are the type that just wears it consistently it will not feel so overwhelming. Of course, I adore this tone and I find it to be a nice change to a typical colour for this season.
 |
| Don't over think this colour. Just throw something on like a great pair of pants and go. |
The best news? I have complied a few olive-green items below you can shop and enjoy for spring and summer. Shopping always lifts the mood and so does this green shade.

Take a moment to think about how you use your social media. When you’re not posting photos yourself, do you scroll through your feed out of curiosity, to see if something new catches your eye? Let’s face facts, it takes 5 seconds to impress someone especially in this digital age. So, you better have the most fascinating photo or video on earth. Otherwise, you will just end up with egg on your face.
 |
| Photo: Wrap Dress Street Style Pinterest |
Of course, for me the moment I stop and like or comment on a photo is when it has a unique charm that fascinates me. In a world, full of people trying too hard to be like everyone else, people miss out on being an individual. If someone does something unusual it immediately catches my interest. That, and I am a massive lover of a classic style. Not only can you get a lot of use out of a timeless piece, but you can have it for years to come. And always find a time to take it out and wear it for that awesome occasion.

A lot of people purchase things because of influencers. However, there’s another trend we’ve started to take note of since it has been popping up on everyone’s feeds. Though, I wouldn’t really call a wrap dress a “trend” mainly because it is a classic style that just came back to the mainstream of fashion. It has been in style for years. Just like the little black dress, it seems the little wrap dress is having its moment for 2019.
History
 |
| Photo: Getty Images Diane von Furstenberg |
Although it is often claimed that Diane von Furstenberg ‘invented’ the wrap dress in 1970s, Richard Martin, a former curator of the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, noted that the form of Furstenberg’s design had already been “deeply embedded into the American designer sportswear tradition,” with her choice of elastic, synthetic fabrics distinguishing her work from earlier wrap dresses.
 |
| Photo: Furstenberg's collection |
Furstenberg’s interpretation of the wrap dress, which was consistently knee-length, in a clingy jersey material, with long sleeves, was so popular and so distinctive that the style has generally become associated with her. She has stated that her divorce inspired the design, and also suggested it was created in the spirit of enabling women to enjoy sexual freedom. In 2004 a book dedicated to Furstenberg’s wrap dress was published.

The wrap dress is a dress with a front closure formed by wrapping one side across the other, and knotting the attached ties that wrap around the back at the waist or fastening buttons. This forms a V-shaped neckline and hugs the wearers body. It is such a classic style, that has been adopted by every single brand around the world.
 |
| Photo: Diane von Furstenberg |
It comes with an easy style that is comfortable, elegant, and current at the same time, making it the perfect style to wear to casual or dressy events. Bonus: the added details of the designs can really catch your eye, and work with your accessories you plan to add into the style mix.

What makes this dress even more irresistible, is the idea you have so many colours, patterns, solids, fabrics, to choose from. With spring and summer already here, you can pick something light and delicate. While saving a night on the town for a more viper exterior.
I have never been a fan of all trends, but I will say I am loving an ever-green item coming back into the spotlight.

From clothing to accessories, it seems the comfortable iconic fabric known as denim is making a splash for spring and summer. What is so chic about this, is the idea you can wear it super casual and pair it with practically anything you own.
It doesn’t surprise me anymore when the past comes into the present and works its way into our everyday lives. Look at cross bodies as an example. They were around years ago, now everyone carries one. I happen to love how convenient they are especially, on a very busy shopping spree.

The most exciting part about this 70’s overload is how realistic we can be with this style. Not only is it wearable, but the versatility is so endless. Which makes shopping for different tones that more fun & exciting. Different colours, whether it is washed out light blue or darker denim has a more casual look, while the other tone can be more polished for dressier occasions.
You can really dress up denim and rock it every day, which makes your style game even more worth the hard work. It is important to choose wisely. Make sure your denim is soft, comfortable, with a nice clean appearance.

When it comes to denim, you don’t have to use the newer seasons, such as spring and summer as an excuse to wear this stylish fabric. It can be worn all the time, no matter the season or occasion. I practically have been a denim jean lover my whole life.
Not only are they flattering and fashionable, but you can wear them all the time and feel so comfortable without sacrificing your true stylish self. And they come in all different styles which makes shopping that more exciting.

We look forward to spring for so many reasons. Sure, there’s the whole no-more layer’s situation, but it’s the fresh fashion offerings that really get us going. Most noteworthy? All of the pretty softer hues. Because come on, what’s more uplifting than steeping out in a new outfit with a softer focus, and even a romantic feel.
Even though street style photography gets our trends flowing. Most of us, still have our eyes peeled to the runways for the latest styles. If there was one major surprise on the spring catwalks, it was the dominance mauve pink, white, and even yellow. There is, however, one huge caveat: “these typical colours” are no longer referred to a dull basic hue, but rather a spectrum of luxe shades- from bold, to delicate. These variations are retro with a modern flare.

Mauve pink is no longer a sweet tone. As spring makes its long-awaited entrance, we are making our arrival with enchanted beautiful styles that feel like something out of timeless daydreams. This elegant colour, can be so versatile because it just has such a soft appearance. You don’t always have to focus on a harsh tone to really be ready to take the season by storm. I love how it just glides in, as to say, “I am here but, I knew I always would be.” Personally, it is one of my favourite colours this year.

When it comes to white, it is basically as classic as black. It goes with everything and you can wear it all year round. You know that term, don’t wear white after labour day? Well, that is defiantly a myth that we fashionistas are breaking with every step we take. From accessories, to incredible shoes. This crisp freshly brought out evergreen tone, is really lovely and goes with the dressiest look, to the ever so fun casual appearance. You really can’t go wrong. In fact, I feel like we all need whiter pieces in our wardrobe now.

Delicious butter on toast, to the most scrumptious pound cake with vanilla cream icing. We all love this happy, yet luscious colour that is yellow. I know, food descriptions, but they sound delicious no? Yellow can be one of the trickiest tones I mentioned here. Mainly, because it tends to be hard to find the right shade. The best way is to focus on one piece that is minimal. So, you can get a sample without having to order the entire meal if that makes sense.

When you think about the trends that come out of this fashion season, it’s easy to let your mind go straight to the catwalks-and it makes perfect sense. Historically, much of the way we used to get the trends was through the designer’s runway showings. In the last several years, however, the focused has shifted (in part) to another aspect of fashion weeks in New York, Paris, Milan, London, and more.

Street style, which provides more immediate inspiration in action. This has continued to increase its market share of our undivided attention, and it’s only natural. While the runways predict trends that will only become relevant in several months’ time, street style influencers are wearing pieces that are promptly available in the moment and show us seasonally right now styling tricks and trends that you can re-create in real time.
Speaking of hot styles for this amazing up and coming season, pastels just scream Spring. But do you go outside to go shopping and end up looking like a painted egg? This isn’t the clown society, so don’t think about crazy tones that can scare your styling bug away to run and hide.
Be bold, and realise that these colours can be enjoyable to experiment and play around with. Style is about trying new things and making them your own, what better way to express yourself.
That’s why I know these pastel colours below, are perfect to incorporate into your everyday wardrobe.

Start off with something classic, versatile, and basically easy to wear with just about anything. I absolutely love a leather biker jacket. It may not be for everyone, but it really makes a bold statement. Stick with pastel biker in pink. It is so pretty, chic, and just stunning really. And the best part is you can wear this jacket by Michael Kors with a casual shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. Then turn around and wear it at night time over an amazing evening dress. So, day to night in a matter of seconds, and you will look beautiful since pastel pink is so flattering.

Pastel isn’t just for clothes; these trending tones are going to your face as well. Why you might ask? Because we girls love makeup. And the beauty industry is showcasing pastels in the form of eye shadow and a beautifully perfected lip. I love how fresh faced you can look naturally with this airy makeup. It is perfect for a daytime at the office, or going out for a night midnight cruise. The best way to apply your makeup naturally is with a brush and then go over it lightly with your finger and you will be ready for your close up.

Power pastels are sweet like candy, think bubble gum, mint or any delicious colour you can buy treats in. Want more? Of course, you do, because more is always better. Not only can you be strong, powerhouse in the work place, you can show off your romantic side in these candy-coloured suit trousers that are too nice to ignore. Best part about these is you can wear these lavender trousers with a casual blouse while heading to the city for kicks. So not only do these work in the office, you can wear them casual as well sweet, right?

How to Incorporate Pastels into your wardrobe
When you think about the trends that come out of this fashion season, it’s easy to let your mind go straight to the catwalks-and it makes perfect sense. Historically, much of the way we used to get the trends was through the designer’s runway showings. In the last several years, however, the focused has shifted (in part) to another aspect of fashion weeks in New York, Paris, Milan, London, and more.

Street style, which provides more immediate inspiration in action. This has continued to increase its market share of our undivided attention, and it’s only natural. While the runways predict trends that will only become relevant in several months’ time, street style influencers are wearing pieces that are promptly available in the moment and show us seasonally right now styling tricks and trends that you can re-create in real time.
Speaking of hot styles for this amazing up and coming season, pastels just scream Spring. But do you go outside to go shopping and end up looking like a painted egg? This isn’t the clown society, so don’t think about crazy tones that can scare your styling bug away to run and hide.

Start off with something classic, versatile, and basically easy to wear with just about anything. I absolutely love a leather biker jacket. It may not be for everyone, but it really makes a bold statement. Stick with pastel biker in pink. It is so pretty, chic, and just stunning really. And the best part is you can wear this jacket by Michael Kors with a casual shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. Then turn around and wear it at night time over an amazing evening dress. So, day to night in a matter of seconds, and you will look beautiful since pastel pink is so flattering.

Pastel isn’t just for clothes; these trending tones are going to your face as well. Why you might ask? Because we girls love makeup. And the beauty industry is showcasing pastels in the form of eye shadow and a beautifully perfected lip. I love how fresh faced you can look naturally with this airy makeup. It is perfect for a daytime at the office, or going out for a night midnight cruise. The best way to apply your makeup naturally is with a brush and then go over it lightly with your finger and you will be ready for your close up.

Power pastels are sweet like candy, think bubble gum, mint or any delicious colour you can buy treats in. Want more? Of course, you do, because more is always better. Not only can you be strong, powerhouse in the work place, you can show off your romantic side in these candy-coloured suit trousers that are too nice to ignore. Best part about these is you can wear these lavender trousers with a casual blouse while heading to the city for kicks. So not only do these work in the office, you can wear them casual as well sweet, right?
