Colour Poppin'

Colourful OOTD featuring embroidery, raw hem jeans and yellow mules - 1

From "all black errthang" to pastel tones to striking brights, everyone has their own approach when it comes to the colours that dominate their wardrobe. My own seems to be "the more the merrier". While there are definitely shades that don't work well on me, I still seem to be attracted to a lot of different ones, and the result is a closet that resembles a rainbow! Perhaps I should streamline things a little, but on the other hand, colour can be a lot of fun at times.

This little red clutch, for instance, immediately stood out to me as the perfect partner to the pretty embroidery on this new Shein top. I've had the clutch for about a decade, but it's such a classic style I don't think I'll ever throw it away, and it's proven so useful over the years.

The yellow mules were a far less obvious choice, but for some reason they just seem to pull the whole look together. I'm pretty happy about that, because I'm still obsessed with these shoes. I picked them up from Topshop last year just before it got too cold to wear them, so I'm thrilled that I can break them out again now spring is here.

Finally, I'm loving the raw hem detail on these River Island jeans. My eye is constantly being drawn to the more exaggerated frayed hems, not to mention full-on embroidered denim (swoon!) but I'm trying to resist, as I feel like I might get sick of those pretty quickly. For the moment, these are fulfilling my current denim desires!

I'd love to know if there are any particular colours that dominate your wardrobe, or do you embrace the rainbow?! Let me know!

  1. I prefer pops of color and bold colors over pastels as well, but the yellow mules would take me a while to get used to. Not only due to,the color, but aren't they uncomfortable to walk in? I always fear I'd loose them.

    1. The colour is pretty out there, I'll admit! They're actually not too bad to walk in. I wouldn't want to walk miles in them, but they're fine for a little wander! x

  2. So well combined. Love the sheer details of the top and the yellow contrast works very well.

    Thanks for sharing it with us. 💛

  3. I love this look on you! That clutch definitely pulls the whole thing together. I need to sort out my Spring wardrobe and then see what additions I need to make. I do love pastels but I also love black so need to do a bit of work! xx

  4. Ahh I love the roses on that mesh top! I'm also loving the embroidery trend too, I even eyed up a pair of embroidered jeans which I never thought I would like! You look lovely Kate :)

    My colour pallet is either navy, greys and pinks at the moment!

  6. I love adding pops of colour here and there but it's something that I don't do often enough! Now spring and summer are on the way I am looking forward to adding more colour here and there and getting rid of the darker shades that I have gotten used to wearing over winter :) x

  8. I'm like a magpie! I love anything bright and sparkly and think that's why I struggle to put an outfit together sometimes. I wouldn't think to style the outfit with the yellow shoes but I love the colour pop. Love how versatile this outfit is to transcend the seasons. Thanks for sharing,
