Light and lovely: Pastels for spring


SINGAPORE- Spring 2013 has brought a palette of blossoming pastel colors to all fashion enthusiasts.

Matching the sweetness of cotton candy and ice cream, the colors of baby pinks, dusk blues, and grayed greens have been spotted across several catwalks and sidewalks alike.

Other light colors according to Pantone.com’s Spring fashion forecast include: linen (a light, “nude-like” color), African violet, and a burst of lemon zest. A touch of these colors easily adds grace and lightness to your look.

On outfits

Dainty dresses are a classic way to wear this trend
Another option is to match ethereal tops with light bottoms (pants, short, and skirts)
On accessories

If you feel that a head to toe look is too much for your personality, you can opt to add small accent pieces to your look
Wrist bangles or necklaces can soften your outfit, along with bags
On makeup and nails

Who said pastel is limited to your wardrobe? This trend is also spotted in beauty/makeup looks and nail colors
