Pastel power

By Becky Raspe

At the rst sign of warmth, we pack away our coats and dust o our summer wardrobes – much of which employs lighter, pastel tones to bring a bit of brightness into our lives. Unsure how to make it work for you? For women, it’s a bit easier – chuck on an airy shirt or a maxi dress for maximum color payo . As for guys, you can either embrace pastel fully from head to toe, or test the waters with pastel details incorporated with another trend: bomber jackets. Either way, Ticknors Men’s Clothier in Beachwood, Knuth’s in Pepper Pike and DRESSCODE Boutique in Beachwood have you covered.
