Let’s face it, black is always the new black. It’s not only the most flattering colour out there but it’s also the easiest colour to mix with other colours, so it’s an all round winner. Because black is so popular it’s really common to sometimes find our outfits lacking a little colour, so today we are going to look at how to add highlights of colour to dark or neutral outfits.

Think Layers

If your outfit is mainly dark, think about adding a layer of colour to bring your look to life. Think about the types of bright vests, tanks, bold patterned camisoles that you can layer into your outfits to pull your ensemble together.

Colour Pop

Think about the items in your wardrobe that add a pop of colour. Look at the colours of your blazers and sweaters and decide which dark trousers, dresses or skirts they would best match. If you’ve boldly ventured into the trend of colourful printed trousers then these are an excellent item to match with neutral or darker outfits to put personality into your style. If you haven’t already bitten the bullet and invested in a pair of bold print pants, now is the time.
