Charcoals and blacks are Winters staple colours in the fashion world. This year they are adding bursts of colour to beat the cold and for a more exciting and daring look.
Classic dark charcoal is a terrific colour for all sorts of fashion pieces, including career suits, trousers, skirts, shoes, and accessories like scarves and handbags. To go along with these charcoal pieces, though, watch for splashes of colour like forest green, deep plum, and rich burgundy. Bright cherry red or sunshine yellow accessories work wonders with charcoal; it's something you're going to see in most fashion collections and is a terrific way to create a look that's interesting, striking, and eye catching.
The earth tones of fall - Deep reds and golden yellows are ideal - give way in winter to deeper and richer shades. Knee high boots, smart trousers or a skirt are perfectly partnered with a dark burgandy coat. Why? Because it brings a hint of colour to your outfit without being overwhelming or overbearing.
Of course, the classic winter white is being shown all over this season, and for good reason. Winter white with creamy tones is a great colour for every occasion for a fresh and clean cut look. From a day at the office to an evening on the dance floor, you'll definitely stand out when you choose a wardrobe piece in this colour. Pair winter white with a burst of colour like greens or blues for a more dramatic effect.
Don't be afraid of adding some bright colours to your winter wardrobe, just because it is Winter. Standard earthy tones are being shown by designers this year however they are livening it up with daring handbags, exotic earrings and chandelier necklaces. Why not try a leopard-print clutch purse to go with your classic black dress suit or sheath style dress?
As always, the key to looking great this winter is to find the colours and tones that work best for you and then use them to spice up your wardrobe in key places. Try something a little different this winter as it is bound to make your wardrobe more interesting and put a skip in your step!
