Have you ever thought about which are you knockout colours? I may live in Alabama but on gameday my heart and soul belongs to Alabama Crimson Tide shirt The ones that make your eyes pop and skin glow? These are your best colours and ones you want to build your wardrobe around, and are also fantastic in your jewellery too. Carol Karl and I discuss more about choosing colours and why black isn’t necessarily the right neutral for your wardrobe in this video interview – check it out now. Most people tell me that they don’t know how to mix colours, so they avoid colours and go for black instead as it seems easier. Mass media and the fashion industry has marketed black as being the most sophisticated colour, the colour that goes with everything and the most slimming colour. Yet this is all a myth. Black, it’s so everywhere now it’s actually boring. When I’ve asked people why they wear a lot of black, most people tell me because they’re unsure of what other colours to wear and it feels “safe” to them. So much so, that most of the time when I walk into a store and pick up a coloured item, the retail sales assistant will immediately say to me “did you see we’ve got that in black?” Why do they do this? Well because most people go for that safe black option and so they are more likely to make a sale (and that keeps them in business). When black first became a fashion colour back in the late 80s and early 90s, before that it was really only worn mostly by widows, as evening wear (glamourous and sophisticate) or by that artistic crowd (again, more sophisticated), it was a more exciting and interesting colour. Sadly, these days it’s everywhere and so no longer has any feeling of being a special colour to wear.

Nothing says springtime like white dresses; they really do make up the DNA of our wardrobes in the warmer months. I may live in Alabama but on gameday my heart and soul belongs to Alabama Crimson Tide shirt What’s so fresh about S/S 24’s version of this classic is that it doesn’t just come courtesy of cotton. In fact, you’ll find it in chiffon, silk, taffeta and gauzy knits. “Winter might be all about the LBD, but for spring/summer 2024, white dresses in all iterations are coming to the fore once again, with plenty of designers honing in on statement, snowy pieces that can be worn by everyone,” says Who What Wear UK managing editor Poppy Nash. “Whether you’re a romantic who is a fan of fairytale-esque, frothy, floor-length numbers (like me) or are a minimalist who prefers elegant and chic, clean lines in the form of structured minis and midis, there’s something for you here. You’ll often see 2024’s signature white dress combined with other key trends for the season, such as sheer fabrics, romantic details like draping and flat footwear, too. Combine them all for an outfit that shows you really know your stuff.”. “S/S 24 is all about simplicity-meets-sophistication, and if you’re looking to buy one statement-making piece this season, make it a white dress,” concurs Speed. “There’s nothing quite as eye-catching as an all-white look, and it’s a piece you can easily tailor to your own style.”
