Summer is right around the corner — is your wardrobe ready? Many people look at summer as a chance to put together a new look (often on a budget). Maybe you want to find the best hues to help your tan stand out a little more, or maybe you’re just curious about what colors are trending this season. We’re here to give you the scoop on all the hottest trends of summer 2018, including which hues you’ll want to mix into your wardrobe.
Purple
If you haven’t heard, purple is IN this year — so much so that the shade “Ultra Violet” was named Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2018. The bright and bold Ultra Violet color isn’t the only shade being rocked in the world of purple. Be on the lookout for gentler hues closer to lavender to make an appearance. The vivacity of purple goes well with all of the other colors the summer season brings to the table. No matter if you’re spending your summer in a garden or on a rooftop patio, you can feel confident and creative when you put on purple.
Sunshine Yellow
Without a doubt, this is one of the best colors for summer — and for good reason! It’s fresh, happy, and works well with plenty of other colors. There are few better ways to celebrate the sunshine than by mimicking it with your outfit. A nice shade of yellow can make you and the rest of your outfit radiate, which looks attractive on anyone. Sunshine yellow pairs well with blue, pink, and white, and the hottest accessories for spring and summer are even getting in on the action!
Light Green
An unexpected frontrunner of summer clothing trends, light green is flattering on both tan and pale skin. Summer is all about everything natural, and what could be more natural than green? Light green comes in a wide variety of shades; everything from mint to pear to lime makes for a great summer look. These shades all work with a variety of other colors, meaning you have an endless amount of outfit possibilities at your disposal. Colors like white and blue create a chic look that will keep things simple, yet stylish.
Black
Bet you didn’t see this coming! As we all know, black is a timeless staple of every wardrobe, regardless of the season. But, as it turns out, there are some scientific reasons as to why you should wear back in the summertime. Black also provides you with more versatility in terms of your outfits — black goes with virtually anything, meaning you have a wider variety of options to choose from. Black also gives you some peace of mind. Summertime is filled with picnics, barbeques and other outdoor activities. Wearing black can make you feel more confident in terms of avoiding unsightly stains or sweat marks. If you want to feel confident and free in the summertime, then black is your best friend.
Dusty Blue
In a crowd of bold colors, dusty blue offers a calming, lovely presence. While some of the other colors on this list are all about standing out and being vibrant, a nice shade of dusty blue keeps things calm and simple. This elegant color is incredibly popular for bridesmaid dresses, but when done correctly can look good on any outfit.
