Neutral's are a fashion perennial, and a wardrobe classic. This season's fresh take on a minimalist palette is quietly sexy, sophisticated and very modern, made even more desirable by the new shades of nude, cream and blush, suddenly summer is starting to shape up very nicely.
From soft and breezy layering to perfectly crisp linens, these are the sort of clothes I can imagine wearing time and time again. Less really is more, and the only accessories really needed are bare tanned legs (fake or real), minimal make-up and the obligatory sunglasses........
This laidback formula for perfect summer dressing feels undoubtedly good.

Maybe, now's the time to try turning the colour down, and let natural tones add some sunshine to your wardrobe this Summer.
Love these pieces, love the soft neutrals, and thank you for showing the high and low options, I actually love that H&M dress, great post.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a great little dress just so wearable! Helen xx
DeleteWhat a gorgeous post - Honestly, I actually found the images really soothing! I love the blush and neutral shades and absolutely love the first Mango maxi dress and also the linen trousers from Zara. I did gaze at the suede backpack and wonder how long it would remain in that pristine condition for :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen. There is quite a calmness to those colours isn't there? I thought the same with that backpack...but I guess it would just get well worn and then better and more loved as it got older!! Xx
DeleteI think that neutral tones are really chic, I love the sandals from Topshop, kisses from Italy
ReplyDeleteI love those sandals too...Great to have a heel that you are actually able to walk a distance in....Thanks Paola!
DeleteHelen xx
Love these soft neutral tones for spring, great styles!
