Well, it’s time to shake off winter and take stock of what’s in our closets. Spring cleaning is my favourite time of year - checking on what wardrobe items I will move out and making room for the new spring / summer fashions I will be bringing home.
Colours for SS18 will be influenced by our northern hemisphere fashionistas, but Australian designers also like to do their own thing.
You’ll see a mix of some bold standards - blues and reds - mixed with a larger palette of pastels. Pink will range from softer pastel into more bold colours reaching a beautiful rose hue.
Red will be a staple, featuring across fabrics, accessories and statement accents, and will also have range that allows for tangerine to make an appearance leading into summer. You may have already seen lots of fun blue/red and blue/tangerine stripes moving onto the racks.
Oh! And metallics!!! Yes!

And, of course, black is always a great balance - so check what you already have in black accessories.
So, what about nail and lip colour? Accent with similar colours from the fashion palette; blues, tangerines and bold pinks for nails and reds, tangerines and pinks for lips. These ladies sum up the spring trends rather nicely:
