ALL IN THE DETAILS: Blushing for Pastels

February 18th, 2015 at 2:00am

Once we reach the month of February, we find ourselves typically longing for the return of the warmth of the springtime. Fashionistas/os cannot wait to retire their dreary colored sweaters and substitute them for cheerful and bright spring colors. Unfortunately, we still have a few more weeks of winter to get through, but don’t worry! I have the perfect solution for you to get you out of your fashion funk. The solution is pastels, which are baby blues, pinks and crisp mint greens. These fresh and bright colors add a feminine element to any ensemble. So, forget a basic black sweater and opt for a fresh spring color to make a statement during the last of these frigid winter days.

This Fashionista is a prime example of how to wear pastels during the winter months. Her baby blue cardigan is a pretty and soft accent to her black jeans. She mixes a soft color with black, which creates a look that is both feminine and edgy. Pairing the soft-colored cardigan with a dark pant really allows the pastel to pop, creating a refreshing ensemble for the winter. This trend has inspired many designers to make pastels in outerwear, pants and sweaters, allowing Fashionistas/os to fabricate this phenomenon to their own unique style.

How To: Wearing all-black, but want to add a fresh pop of color? Have no fear. Pastels will surely brighten your look up! Add any pastel-colored jacket to allude to the cheerfulness of the springtime on a cold winter day. Baby blue or blush should go fabulously with the predominately black look.
