Pastel Love

Spring runway always has a place for colour- bright rainbows, electrifying neons, and now the lovely pastels. Designers either team the same pastel colours together or pair them with other soft shades. Also, white is pastels’ best friend, black leather offers a cool touch, and one more, you can always be creative with the lovely pastels.

A Flash of Neon

Summer’s officially over, it is autumn now in Melbourne. In fact, we hardly had any sunny days this summer, but I’m not complaining, I actually love cooler days better. Season’s changing, to lighten up, all you need is a flash of neon.

Spring Runway Mani

Be inspired by spring runway mani trends:

1. Colours-Dominant colours are red, blue and nude, although bright colours are seen a few times.

2. Shape-The favaourite shape still is short and square, however, moon mani is more trendy and eyecathcing.

3. Style-Mani is a part of the outfit, either go with matchy-matchy or let the nail colour stand out. When in doubt, choose red or sheer colours.
