SPRING style TIPS

THE NEW NEUTRAL

Try using navy as your go-to neutral instead of black this summer. It’s an easy way to make complementary colours pop and look new, even though you’ve barely changed shades.

CLASSIC CHOICES

A few classic pieces in solid colours will take you a long way. Mix and match, layering a duster dress over your favourite skirt or a T-shirt and jeans. A neutral-coloured vest works well paired with a classic button-down blouse. Black is in style for sprig or summer and is easily accessorized. Add a pop of colour with a naturally dyed scarf. Indigo blue never goes out of style and looks great on everyone.

TIE ONE ON

For those summer weddings and other special occasions when you want to look good without being too dressed up, add a tie to your casual outfit. You can wear it tied tight with your buttoned-up shirt or hanging loose with an opennecked shirt.

TRY TONE-ON-TONE

If you can only buy two things this season, do one outfit completely monotone in ivory, layering textures and tones. Select a second outfit or dress in a multi-coloured print and you will be set for the season.

DENIM UPDATE

Light blue denim that has been sun-bleached and sandblasted to give a “lived-in” effect can spice up your summer look.

CHECKING IN

Update your wardrobe for summer by adding assorted check shirts to be worn with or without a tie, depending on the occasion.
