If, like me, you’ve noticed your Instagram feed is awash with saturated turquoise hues and saccharine shades of pink, you might be feeling a little out of step with this season’s biggest colour trends. As much as I love colour in a summer wardrobe, those high-impact tones aren’t quite for me. Thankfully, there are softer, more understated combinations that feel just as fresh, and Charlize Theron has just stepped out in one of the very chicest.
A slightly more grown-up alternative to summer’s turquoise trend, Charlize stepped out in a cotton shirt in the prettiest pale blue. Fresh and light without feeling overpowering, the soft shade delivered all of the brightness you need for warm-weather dressing, but in a way that feels much easier to wear.
Rather than grounding the look with black, or even chocolate brown, Charlize instead opted for elegant mauve trousers. The muted colour pairing brings depth whilst maintaining its light, summery feel. Together, the pale blue and soft mauve offer a balanced and unexpected way to wear colours right now.
If this season’s turquoise and vibrant pink trends haven’t quite won you over, consider this elevated combination instead. Read on to shop my edit of the best pale blue and mauve pieces to wear now.
