As the heat starts seeping through our windows, we tend to lean towards soft pastel shades as a way to stay cool. Besides fruity Popsicles, this summer we are getting obsessed with blush tones that give a sophisticated yet chic look to our wardrobes. Looks such as the Givenchy one shown above is just one way how you can maintain this look, you can however corporate simple pieces to your regular outfits such as the jacket with a pair of white jeans, or beige pants with pastel colored summery tops. One way that designers are adding this trend to their regular pieces is by using lighter materials. Miu Miu for example incorporated beige linen to the usual leather tote that made an appearance a few years ago, and today, it is still considered trendy especially with the mix and match of texttured materials. It is always important to add a pop of color to a banal shade such as beige, and this could be done with accessories - if you are sticking to an all-beige outfit. Earrings such as the ones Tom Binns introduced could add some spice with summery shades such as red, orange and yellow. Don't be afraid to stick to neutral tones, with the right accessories, your outfit will never look boring!
