After what feels like two years of red dominance, four fresh color trends have emerged just in time for spring. Have no fear, burgundy and cherry red are still prominent, but it’s time to make space for the newcomers: blush pink, butter yellow, mint green, and shades of gray. This set is a return to tradition, taking us back to our roots with seasonally appropriate pastels. I, for one, can’t wait to trade in my black knits and slacks for these lighter shades, and I’m starting with the following 16 pieces from NET-A-PORTER. We got a peek at these colors on the runways, but one scroll through the retailer’s spring edit makes it clear that these four shades are the winners of the season. Shop my designer picks for spring below.
Blush Pink
Pink for spring is certainly not groundbreaking, but there is something refreshing about pulling out a blush-pink button-down after months of wearing neutral sweaters. Embrace seasonal traditions and shop my favorite pink pieces from NET-A-PORTER below.
