In difficult times, fashion can seem a little trivial and is hardly high on anyone’s list of priorities. In the first few weeks of staying at home, many of us lived in comfortable basics and stopped getting dressed properly. You’ve got to do what helps you through these times, so if you want to wear a dressing gown and slippers to take the bins out, then go for it, but others might find some comfort in wearing a ballgown to do their chores.
Clothes can impact your mood and make you feel ready for the day ahead, and so it’s unsurprising that after months of lockdown, many are returning to the clothes that make them feel happy. The one uplifting styling trick I keep seeing people turn to at the moment is experimenting with playful colour combinations. Last month, many participated in the #instarainbowchallenge—an Instagram movement in which people wore jolly, vibrant outfits for one week.
Colour can, however, be intimidating to many, and so to help give you some ideas for how to wear bolder shades, here are some of our favourite vibrant outfits we’ve spotted over the past few months.
