I know there are plenty of people who are staunchly loyal to wearing black, but I don't happen to be one of them. I've found that colour is a great way to try out trends because you can choose classic, tried-and-true silhouettes in fun hues. In other words, you can feel like you're having fun with fashion without the risk of investing in any flash-in-the-pan trends.
To that end, I recently tapped a Pantone colour expert to offer her take on the most soothing colours to wear right now. This time around, I sought out a different kind of expert: our readers' favourite retailers. I scanned through Zara, H&M, and Mango to see the common themes among them. The result: I found four specific colours that popped up time and time again. Scroll down to shop the stylish shades.
1. Milk Chocolate Brown
Proof that wide-leg sweatpants can be quite chic.
Love a cardi-waistcoat hybrid.
This shearling jacket is as cozy as it is stylish.
Take notes: This dress looks great with knee-high boots.
A twist on the leather jacket.
Spring will be here eventually.
2. Buttery Yellow
This looks so cosy.
Not your brother's corduroy pants.
This knit is a steal.
Yep, I'd wear this sweater with wide-leg trousers as well.
Such a versatile basic to wear with anything.
Perfect for the summer.
This has me dreaming of spring.
Admit it: You'd wear these lounge pants with Birkenstocks as well.
The definition of basic-not-boring.
3. Seafoam Green
Grandma chic.
I'm all about roomy pieces right now.
This colour is absolutely everywhere right now.
Zara always hits the nail on the head.
I never want to wear anything skin-tight again.
You can never own too many cosy hoodies.
Thanks for the outfit inspo, Zara.
Love this side detailing.
4. Fire-Engine Red
Such a striking colour.
This is such a pretty lace-trimmed top.
Can you tell I'm obsessed with knits?
Consider putting your black trousers to the side for now.
Long live the puff sleeve.
LRD, anyone? (Little Red Dress.)
Don't overlook this great neckline.
