Bright Spot

• Used properly, colour is a powerful tool in the development of a strong sense of personal style. It gets you noticed; it refreshes, stimulates and charges up a tired wardrobe.
• Let your favourite bright rock it by combining it with neutral shades.
• When in doubt, start small with one colourful item, and build from there.

Neutral Territory

• While there is no shortage of bright, saturated colour this spring, soft earth tones are appealing and wearable.
• Cocoa, taupe, and tan, when offset with ivory and cream, say elegance and sophistication.
• Touchable textures, shimmery shine, and pretty prints keep the look neutral but new.

Fresh Prints

• Pulling off prints can be tricky so remember first to keep the shape simple and let the print speak.
• When wearing prints, scale is important; you don’t want to look insignificant or overpowered.
• Ground your print piece with a colour from the design.
• For the office, add a print accessory or blouse.

Trench Twist

• Nothing brightens up a dull day faster than a trench in an eye-popping colour.
• There are many new twists on this spring staple: shorter lengths, fab prints, and new button and stitching details.
• Brights are best styled with neutrals so that their true colors can really shine through.

Everything’s Peachy

• Pretty, powdery, peachy shades flatter people with subtle contrast between their eye, skin, and hair colour.
• Avoid the “cutesy” thing by pairing your pastels with ivory, earth tones, taupes, or grey.
• Simple shapes will keep these colours from looking over-the-top girlie.

All Day Long

• The long daytime maxi dress is sticking around this season- casual, comfy and chic.
• Keep it relaxed with a wedge or flat shoe and stay trendy with bright, bold accessories.
• Choose a length that hits just above the feet – or adjust the hemline accordingly.

Opposites Attract

• Black and white is as classic and sophisticated a colour combo as it gets.
• Keep it new with a fresh accent colour to avoid looking like you work in the hospitality industry.
• Watch where you place white on the body – as it can add width while black as we know is slimming.
• Experiment with prints, proportions or textures to keep your look interesting and unpredictable.

Ahoy There

• Don’t be too literal with this perennial theme or you can end up looking like a Love Boat crew member gone terribly wrong.
• The look is distinctively youthful, but can be pulled off with a sophisticated sensibility too.
• Navy, crisp white, bright red, and black mixed with touches of gold come together in a fresh, preppy way.

Short Order

• Trendy or trashy? Knowing when and how to wear short, shorts is key.
• This is the season to show off those gorgeous gams (if you have them) with the cutest shorts ever.
• Shorts lengthen the leg and when worn with chunky heels or wedge shoes – make you look taller.
• The fit of the short needs to be appropriate to your body type; pleats or gathering around the waist will add pounds.

Parallel Universe

• Horizontal stripes can be a bit problematic, as they most definitely add width. Avoid horizontal stripes that tend to widen certain areas – unless you have a straight up and down frame and need to create some curves.
• If you have a large bottom you can create balance by wearing a striped top with solid pants or skirt. Don’t put broad shoulders or a fluffy middle on the line.
• Keep horizontal stripes loose and go one-size-up to stop them from clinging too tightly and having an even greater widening effect.
