Soft Pop Based on the beauty of nature, we found these soft, pastel shades of color schemes. It has delicate shades of nature such as sky blue, sunset pink, beach wave colors, etc. It has a feeling like when you walk along the beach and Sun comes down, you would get a sence of warm breeze instead of hot sunny weather during the spring and summer. Soft touch of the nature would be your sweet memories when you get tired from the summer heat.

Past Modern For our last color theme, art is blurred line which transcend time and space, just like neutral color schemes. It has basic colors such as beige, navy, and grey, etc. According to these shades, the styling can be either minimal or casual. With a bit of freshness of coral and peach shades, you can feel calm and laid back just like when you appreciate art works. The fashion styles would be comfy not much having extras. These timeless basic colors are always must-have, and also a blurred line between past and modern of your times.
