Trend of the week: Neutral palette

Warm up this summer with a new neutral palette.

INSPIRATION

Summer whites leaving you washed out? Polish up your look with a more clement colourway. Think warm tones like cappuccino, cream, tobacco and nougat – ideal for paler skins, cooler temperatures and ‘soft’ Irish days.

STYLE NOTES

Make like Marni and combine mocha and nougat with mint and baby blue.

Go Gallic with a classic camel and white combo. If it’s good enough for Chanel...

Create the illusion of length with a singular head-to-toe tone – easy to pull off in subtle shades like toffee and cream.

Look the business in an office-appropriate tobacco dress from Helen McAlinden: jersey, knee-length and three quarter sleeves. What’s not to like?
