Pretty in Pastels

Updated: Jul 19, 2019

"On Wednesday's we wear pink" - Pastel pink.


Pastels are taking over beautiful instagram feeds and causing a cultural obsession. Pastels appear girly creating a whimsical scene for photography and fashion alike. Wearing pastels is bold and daring. Once upon a time pastels where for children's bedrooms now they are taking over the cover of Vogue.


A simple pastel colour palette built around pinks, greens and baby blues can bring your staple clothing collection to life. A bright colour scheme translates into the cherry on top of your bleak black and grey winter get up. Enhance those black knits with a pastel coat that will surely get heads turning. Pair this fluffy pastel pink coat with some leather lace up boots and statement earrings to complete a look.


I gave myself a challenge, to take my own magazine worthy images only using pastel pink clothing. I picked out some affordable clothing that I think add colour but doesn't take away any sophistication. There is no need to shy away from pastel colours. Personally I love black clothing, you can't go wrong with a little black dress. However, black can get predictable and adding a pop of pastel can make your black look more interesting. More colour can make you stand out and lighter colours tend to make you look happier which is always a bonus!.


Here are my final images, they ended up looking really high end, making this simple evening outfit ready for the runway. Let me know what you think! Challenge yourself to try some new pastel shades or even try my photography challenge and grab a piece of clothing to photograph, just you some clothes and a camera.
