With Summer 2017 officially in full swing (debatable but, still, it is apparently July), there’s a clear colour trend emerging that will take you through the summer in to AW17 and beyond.
Whether you’re a fan of wearing colour or not there’s no denying that red is classic. It’s the colour of Marylin Monroe’s lips and the sole of our dream heels *thinks longingly about Louboutins*. Whilst colour trends come and go red always makes an appearance, season after season. Our Lookers are no stranger to the trend and you only have to take a quick look at the app to see that we’re in a full-on red resurgence…

If full on red really isn’t for you then why not introduce it into your wardrobe in smaller doses? Red accessories are the ideal way to brighten up more muted tones and add a splash of colour on those summer days that aren’t so summery. Tee’s red shoes and bag complement her khaki culottes perfectly for a fresh take on a summer staple – a great way to jump on the red trend without going too far out of your comfort zone.
So go on, with style inspo as good as this you might as well be known as the ‘Lady in Red’ (if you don’t know the song, ask your mum).
