Woman This Month - October 2012

Neutral shades seem to be a corner stone of every season’s collection as here they are again. The catwalks were filled with models strutting in nude-coloured shoes, bags and jewellery. Blush Pink Complement a softer outfit with accessories in this shade of nude. Dior and Valentino in particular embraced shades of pink with chunky suede shoes and silk gloves creating very tactile collections designed to make the average woman look like royalty. Pure Beige Beige is often misconstrued as bland, but that couldn’t be further from the truth with the accessories available in this colour this season. From flat ballet-esque shoes to ladylike courts or a chunky textured bag, beige is making its stand and proving its worth. Classic Ivory The pure nakedness of this hue works well against busy outfits that need an injection of calm. Next to darker clothing colours, ivory accessories are made very visible and subsequently have a very luxe look.
