Trend of the week: Pink and red palette

If summer's love affair with white leaves you feeling like a spinster, get ready for something a bit spicier. Red and pink is the new couple in town with 'notice-me' appeal that's bound to turn heads. Designers like Antonio Berardi and Marc Jacobs have touted the titillating twosome; not to mention red carpet regulars like Sarah Jessica Parker and Emma Stone. The mercury is rising in fashion land. Time to feel the heat!
• Pear-shaped? Opt for this Heidi Higgins dress which uses a lighter colour on the top and darker on the bottom to balance those proportions.
• Tone a head-to-toe look with neutral accessories in black or white.
• Take a tamer approach with a simple focal point like a two-tone bag or pool slider sandal.
• Big-busted? Use clever colour blocking to visually slim ample assets.
