My entire wardrobe is grey, black, navy and (if I'm feeling summery) white. That's it. I don't do colour. There are a lot of colours I just don't suit (nothing yellow or orange, cobalt blue, khaki) and I'm not keen on brights.
I had a bit of a splurge this week and yesterday took delivery of a new black blazer, grey trousers, two navy tops and a black one. All of which I love, but then the sun came out and it felt really spring-like and I suddenly felt like I was dressed for a funeral when everyone else was breaking out the pretty colours.
Don't want to go overboard but thought maybe a couple of tops in a very pale blue or a dusty pink or something might do it. Don't want to go down the HoC route - just want an idea for a top or two.
I like quite plain things, classic shapes etc - the Hush/Cos kind of look. At the moment I'm wearing grey cigarette trousers, grey Gazelles, a long black top from Me + Em and am about to stick a longline flowy Uniqlo blazer on top (black, obvs).
What have you seen that could be nice and (slightly) colourful?
