STYLING LEVEL: MEDIUM

This is a more tonal take on the look: think different pieces that are all from the same colour family. Here I am wearing shades of rich plum and a hot pink, which together make my heart soar. You can also do tonal by picking one strong colour and adding more pastel versions – as shown here with my cobalt blue dress and softer blue accessories. I found this second look so easy to wear as it’s bright but not ‘out there’. The only rule when doing tonal is that the shades can’t be too similar as you’ll end up looking like you’ve tried to match them but made a mistake.
