Get carried away with pink…..

While we all feel confident wearing neutrals and yes, they are a must for any wardrobe, the sea of the same hues and tones on repeat can seem a little unmotivating when contemplating what to wear each day.

While you have good intentions, sometimes stepping outside your comfort zone may have you feeling a little intimidated. To help you out, we have put together a look that is impeccably polished but still imbued with a sense of fearless imagination and playfulness through its bright, bold colour palette… the perfect go-to look for the contemporary girl.

So, first things first and it’s impossible to ignore… this hot pink statement blazer!

A blazer is the one piece in every modern day woman’s wardrobe that can transform style in an instant… bringing a sleek sophistication to any look. The must-haves and failsafe options in every blazer collection are the classic black, navy and plaid but make sure you always allow room for something a little bit different and unique as there is no feeling quiet like stepping out in an eye-catching blazer… and what says contemporary more than this seasons must-have hue, pink?

To achieve this look and allow the blazer to take centre stage effortlessly, slide into a pair of staple white jeans and partially tuck in a delicate soft pink silk shirt. White jeans are a fresh alternative to brighten up a cool weather wardrobe. Slip on a pair of suede sling-backs in a similar hue to the shirt and watch the monochromatic magic do its thing!

Don’t worry…if you love this look but pink isn’t for you, simply follow suit and choose your best brightest hue in your unique seasons colour palette for the same show-stopping effect or play around with unexpected textures and accessories to bring the look more into your individual style.

Now we all know a handbag is a girls most loyal companion so before heading out the door sling the Spencer and Rutherford Hedi handbag over your shoulder for a chic day-to-night option. The structured silhouette and clean lines pair perfectly with this contemporary look while the cross-hatch detail brings a fashion-forward and creative edge to a simplistic style.

Elevating the look with an unexpected pairing of classic pearl studs and an oh-so-now statement ring, the perfect combination of elegance and edge…Always making sure the pearls and metal are in harmony with your complexion. Just like our complexion, pearls have an array of undertones that have the ability to make you radiate when paired perfectly against your individual skin tone… Ask the experts at Umun Jewellery Studio and open your eyes to the world of colour and individual styled jewellery.

This outfit is perfect for day-to-night so apply your make-up accordingly!

For the face always start with a flawless base, bring life to your cheeks with contour and blush. Highlighting the high-points of your face for a natural glow. For the eyes….I’m going to let you in on a secret that I’ve been obsessing over! While a matte-black winged liner always looks on-point, let’s be honest it’s always a risk to do in our morning rush out the door and can look a little heavy for every-day wear… so opt for the same shape with a chocolate brown shadow giving a softer finish. If you make a mistake don’t stress it wipes straight off!

You can thank me for this one later….xxx

Finally finish the look by keeping the hair straight with high-shine in a blunt cut for a sleek, sharp style and added fullness.

Now, next time when you are reaching for your black, neutral or grey blazer… think again…. be bold, be brave, be daring and embrace colour…..

Bye for now,
