today i love... bright colours

Given that my favourite colour clothes are usually shades of navy, grey or nude, no-one is more surprised than I am to find myself drawn to bright colours right now. Such is the power of the catwalk shows, I suppose. Tomorrow is the first day of March, which means that finally, after months of talking about spring clothes, we might soon be able to actually wear them. And what better way to shake off the last remnants of winter than by embracing bright colours? Admittedly I'm not too keen to go down the Gucci/Jil Sander route of clashing them all up together, but there are certainly ways the colour-shy among us can work them gradually into our wardrobes. One of the easiest ways to do this is by adding a pop of brights to an otherwise neutral outfit. Coral goes particularly well with nude, while a flash of electric blue looks perfect against stark white. If you're feeling brave, try combining tonal shades such as blue with turquoise, or coral with orange. You'll soon find that a little colour goes a long way.
