Trend File: Sunny side up!

Every shade of yellow won’t suit every skin tone; be sure to wear the colour the right way.

It’s time to phase out dark, dull colours from your wardrobe and bring in bright, summery shades to match the sun. The colour yellow is topping fashion charts throughout the world whether it is a bright shade or a rich mustard.

It’s a colour that adds instant brightness to your look; a yellow ribbon in your hair; a skinny belt; yellow ballet flats or an oversized yellow bag is noticeable and fashionable.

Be sure to wear the colour the right way. Every shade of yellow won’t suit every skin tone; a pale face may be lost in a pastel shade, while mustard may not complement a dusky skin tone. On our skin tones, bright yellow is most flattering, provided that the outfit is not a buttery yellow disaster.

So what are you waiting for? Run to the nearest store and indulge in some yellow accents.
