Light Summer

Light Summer clothing

Build an outfit around two usable neutrals and one accent, then vary texture instead of adding more color.

Powder blue, pale rose and light lavender form gentle combinations. Favor coolness without turning every outfit icy or highly contrasted.

Colors to begin with

Choose cool-neutral, light, gently soft tones.

A practical rule

Try the color nearest your face first. Coats, knitwear and shirt collars affect the visual impression more than shoes.

For this palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
