LIGHTEN UP WITH PASTELS

WHITE footwear used to be reserved for summer — but this season the High Street is brimming with bright white Sixties-inspired ankle boots. They emphasise pale bare legs, so take a tip from actress Cate Blanchett (right), who wore hers with a sherbet-yellow trouser suit. Lilacs and pale blues work well too. If you don’t want to brave the entire suit, pastel bottoms and a top will do. Boots, £59, kurtgeiger.com
