Colour Theory for S/S 13


Vogue Festival the past few days. Sundance Film and Music Festival too. I decided to plan my wardrobe in hopes the weather continues to get a bit warmer.

First, colour selection...

Green (emerald, not lime). 
Yellow (more mustard, less neon).
Mauve (pink blush, not bubblegum). 
Orange (blood orange, not so keen on peach or corals anymore).
Turquoise (a summer staple). 
White (is the new black).
 
Not all at the same time of course. Only as a single block or accent; no more than 3 colours max per outfit. Ever. (unless it's Pucci)

Neutrals: taupe, beige, ivory, caramel, grey, periwinkle - 
and less navy, chocolate, charcoal, black. 

All ready for spring and summer!



And after all that...I end up buying another black dress this weekend. So much for planning.
