Bright and Cheerful in Yellow

One of the easiest ways to update your wardrobe for a new season is to add one of the season's signature colours. Simple additions of this kind make you feel fashionable at an absolute minimum of cost.

For Summer 2007, one of the coolest new colours is "yellow". We saw it a little last summer, and it made appearances during winter - alongside grey and black, in rich buttery hues and mustard. This summer, you'll see it in all shades, from icy yellow to vivid brights.

If you don't have any yellow in your wardrobe yet, or you're not sure if it suits you, Colour Me Beautiful (a system of personal "colour" seasons which address how to wear your colours best) demonstrates that we can all wear a shade of yellow, as long it is the right shade.

For example;

- Winters can wear Icy Yellow or Lemon Yellow,

- Summers suit Light Lemon Yellow,

- Autumns can wear Gold, Yellow-Gold, Mustard, Pumpkin and Gold-tone accessories, and

- Springs can wear Light Clear Gold, Bright Yellow Gold and Gold-tone accessories.

I have added some new yellow items to my wardrobe, however as I'm a "winter", I am aware that anything beyond the icy and lemon yellows, won't really suit my complexion. If you're also someone who can't wear yellow a lot, then yellow accessories may be the answer! By adding items such as yellow shoes, bags, bangles, etc you can incorporate the latest colour, without detracting from your natural beauty.

This season, there are some lovely clothes and accessories available in yellow. Have fun experimenting with this new colour!
