S/S '13 Trend 3: Colours for the Season

Although we've seen monochrome taking over the runways, spring/summer would be absolutely incomplete without some sort of colour! A summer without colour? I don't think so!

Every year, there is always some kind of stand out colour that we all become obsessed with for spring and summer. And by the looks of it, the stand out colour for 2013 has got to be YELLOW! Neon, pastel, print, subtle, whatever form it has taken, yellow has been absolutely everywhere! I can't seem to get enough of it myself.

Whether it be a yellow top, dress or even skirt, (don't forget a pop of yellow would look great in your accessories too), you have to purchase it! (well... you don't HAVE to do anything...but you gotta have yellow in your wardrobe LOL)

Some GREAT yellow pieces:

Oasis Lace Yellow Top - ideal with dark wash blue jeans & white blazer. The perfect ensemble.

Coast La Mamounia Dress - please can I have somewhere to go to, to wear this gorgeous dress? Please?

Zara Basic Clutch Bag  - A nice pop of colour to any sort of outfit. Team it with a monochrome look. Killing two birds with one stone. Boo-ya!

Boohoo Loren Neon Toe Cap & Perspex Shoes  - Might not to be everyone's cup of tea, but these are super trendy and will really off set an outfit.

If you aren't a fan of the colour yellow, don't worry coral has also had its fair share in the spotlight, along with blues like turquoise and cobalt and garden grass green.

My top 5 colour picks of S/S '13 - in order of preference

  • Yellow
  • Coral
  • Green
  • Pale Blues - Turquoise
  • Cobalt

Other Colour Alternatives:

Ted Baker Green Full Length Pleated Maxi Dress - I am in LOVEE with this maxi dress- It is absolutely gorgeous, and it also comes in a powder blue shade option. It is the perfect summer maxi dress that would be ideal for a fancy wedding, holidays or even something as casual as a get together meal. I just adore it & I need it. Right now.

Asos Premium Bib Necklace - Perfect for that splash of colour to any outfit. Timeless. Gorgeous. Easy to wear. Suits anyone. What more could you ask for from a statement necklace?

Whistles Wild Grass Print Dress  - I love the style of this dress and the way it has been made. It has a relaxed fit and is exactly one of those dresses you can take through day to night. Sandals in the day and wedges for those summer nights.

Asos Cobalt Blue Shirt  - gotta love a blue shirt.


To be honest, you are free to choose whatever colour you want to wear which suits you best, these colours of the seasons are ones that have been sported on the runways and are rife in all the stores at the moment. If you're looking to be on trend then I think investing in some of these colours would give you some great options for different types of outfits! We can all do with a bit of colour in our lives!
