(1) The Bold Suit

Just because summer is coming to an end, that doesn’t mean our wardrobes need to be dull and dreary. Why not add a shot of pastel into your workwear wardrobe with a fresh mint-green suit. 2020 was all about oversized menswear cuts and loose tailoring, with extra points if you make it a short suit. Whatever cut or length you decide, this colour is guaranteed to do all of the talking. Keep your accessories neutral opting for sneakers and a white T-shirt for a playful look that works on the weekend too.

(2) The Misty Jade Skirt

The midi skirt is the all-year-round saviour we all know and love, and it’s all about wearing it in a bold pastel shade for F/W 20. Play with your accessories for a super fun vibe and try opting for a matching shade top just like the style set for extra kudos.

(3) Accessories

If you're a dedicated wearer of black or neutrals, a full pastel-green look can feel a little daunting, but you can still dip your toe into the trend via your accessories. This look is super wearable when incorporated via a boxy handbag, ankle socks or a chunky-knit hat which will all help to keep your outfit looking fresh for the change of season.
