spring colours: pastels and army green

Well, it's that time of year again. The time of year when Spring emerges, and pastels along with it. Pastels are always, always trendy for Spring, and no matter which hue of pastels are being shown, you can never go wrong with classic colours, like pink, blue, yellow, and purple. Another colour that is also always, always trendy for Spring is army green. Think earth tones, fresh grass growing, and of course, the army green cargo jacket that is literally always on the spring fashion scene.

Easter Pastels

"Easter Sunday is the time to shed the darker, drabber colors of winter and mourning and to bring out the brighter colors that celebrate the arrival of spring and the rebirth of hope on the earth" - Colorcombos.com

I love the Easter time of year because, it's one of probably two holidays that have fashion and colour trends that go along with it (the other being Christmas). So even though I don't celebrate Easter, I still love to partake in wearing the spring-coloured pastel trend that seems to go along so seamlessly with the holiday.

The colours we typically see for Easter such as on eggs and baskets are yellow, pink, blue, and green. So we also usually see a lot of garments in these colours in the early spring. Here are some of my favourites. I also love how there are different shades of a technically "pastel" colour, as you'll see below. This way, if such a muted hue doesn't flatter a certain person all that much, they can still wear pastels but in a different shade.

But we also see pastel versions of other colours too, such as purple and orange or off-white, especially this season with purple being a huge trend. Here are some of my favourites.

Happy Easter everyone!
