Adding a pop of red is an easy way to turn a simple outfit into something special. Try swapping cream jeans for cherry-red ones and layer them with a white tee and grey sweater. Your weekend look is sorted.
Crisp white is a timeless summer look, so pull out your white cotton skirt and style it into a tonal outfit with a matching tank top. Keep the rest of the outfit sleek and pared back with minimal black sandals and a raffia tote. Gold jewellery elevates the look enough for on-duty days.
For day-to-evening dressing, a silky slip dress hits the mark. Butter yellow feels suitably summery and can be styled with your classic black sandals. A chocolate brown cardigan creates a chic colour contrast, as well as serving as a useful lightweight layer.
