Pastels are very hot for Spring/Summer 2010! Baby blues,
lilacs, light pinks and pale aquas are all over the runways. (Don’t forget
about our Pantone reports on two beautiful pastels: Pink Champagne and
Eucalyptus!)

The key to this trend is incorporating small amounts of
pastels into your wardrobe. Going overboard on will make you look like you
stepped out of a baby’s boutique! Instead, try adding small amounts of pastels
into your daily outfits, like a pale pink lip, a light bow in your hair or a
pastel pair of sandals. Once you feel comfortable with that, work your way up
to one major pastel piece like a dress or jacket! Pastels look gorgeous with
muted neutrals like tan, gray or cream.
