Q&A’s

Hi Kate

I am loving all the colour I’m seeing everywhere at the moment and I would really like to get away from the monochrome rut I seem to be in. Everything I own is black or white and when I go shopping I am instantly drawn to black!!

The thought of reinventing my whole look sends me into a slight panic so how can I add brights to my wardrobe for work and weekends?

Thanks  Orla

Answer

Hi Orla,

Most peoples wardrobes are built around a neutral palette. Pick one colour that’s works well for you (navy, grey, chocolate and the likes of are a little bit softer than black) and team with flashes of colour.

This can be in the form of a bag, a top, some ballet pumps or wedges.

Prints are another good way to do colour, maybe as a skirt. There are lots of bright tunics and dresses out there at the moment that can be worn over jeans until the weather get warmer when you can show off your legs with a nice pair of flat shoes.
