HUE CLUES: FASHION HAS SERVED UP A FASHIONABLE FEAST FOR THE EYES IN BRIGHT AND BOLD COLOURS THIS SUMMER BUT FOR THOSE WHO DON’T WANT TO TASTE THE RAINBOW, THERE ARE MORE MODEST COLOURS TURNING HEADS.
THE PERENNIAL NEUTRAL
From supple leather bags to peep-toes in the latte hue, beige accessories are a versatile investment for any fashion-forward girl. From the office to the lounge, the otherwise underrated colour proves it’s got statement value.
FLIRTATIOUS HONEYSUCKLE
According to Pantone, the United States authority on colour, honeysuckle is the colour for the season. The vibrant pinkish-red hue makes you feel alive and brings a festive sense of playfulness to the season’s colour palette. Definitely add a piece in this colour to your wardrobe to ward off the blues. Available at Etteza
SAY “PRETTY PLEATS”
For those who love the feminine styles that are prevalent this season, there is another girly choice for you: pleats. From midi box pleats that are perfect for the office to maxi sunray pleats, there is a style after your heart to keep you in the fold.
VERSATILE GAL
It’s Crop Over season and that means there are plenty of after-work limes to attend. Go from office chic to street sexy in a blink with this fitted dress and jacket combination. Available at Intermix

TREND
BLOCKOLOGY: HOW TO COLOUR BLOCK FASHION SHINES AT ITS BRIGHTEST AND BOLDEST THIS YEAR WITH THE NEWEST HOT TREND – COLOUR BLOCKING. YOU KNOW, ALL THOSE COLOURS THAT GRANNY SAID DON’T GO TOGETHER. WELL GUESS WHAT, NOW THEY DO!
THE RULE OF TWO THIRDS
Make a triangle with three equal sides on the colour wheel. Pick two of the three colours that the tips touch. These colours will harmonize beautifully together (for example, red, blue and yellow).
YOU COLOUR-BLOCK WHEN YOU PUT AREAS OR BLOCKS OF SOLID COLOUR NEXT TO EACH OTHER TO CREATE AN ENSEMBLE. THE KEY TO PUTTING THE LOOK TOGETHER IS TO USE COLOURS THAT SUPPORT AND COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER. USE A COLOUR WHEEL TO SEE THE COLOURS THAT PAIR UP WELL.
COLOUR WHEEL IN HAND, FOLLOW THESE COMBINATIONS AND BEGIN EXPERIMENTING WITH VARIOUS LOOKS:
X-FACTOR
Colours that form an X on the wheel will create an impactful colour-block outfit (like blue, orange, yellow, and violet red).
!
TIP
Confidence is key when trying out the bold and daring looks of this summer. If you are not confident about the look then you won’t carry it well.
SIDE BY SIDE
Pair analogous colours – any three colours next to each other on the colour wheel.
T-SHAPE
Pair colours that form a T (such as yellow, bluegreen and red).
OPPOSITES ATTRACT
Colours opposite each other on the wheel, known as complementary colours, go well together (for example, blue and orange). Now that you’ve got the basics, it’s time to review your closet and incorporate the raving colour-block trend. Happy blocking!

BITS ACCESSORIES ARE IMPORTANT FOR EVERY LOOK AND TAKING THE TIME TO ACCESSORIZE CAN COMPLETELY CHANGE THE LOOK OF YOUR OUTFIT – TRENDY OR NOT. TRANSFORM YOUR LOOK IN AN INSTANT WITH THIS SEASON’S PICKS.
SHOES: THERE IS NO EXPLAINING A WOMAN’S OBSESSION WITH SHOES, AND THIS SUMMER WE’RE NO CLOSER TO FINDING OUT.
OBI MADNESS Get all tied up with the most exotic accessory for this season – the obi belt. Inspired by the sashes used to cinch Japanese kimonos, they complete any look with elegance and do a great job of pulling separates together. Wider than a normal belt, with either a sash or mini-belt closure, the obi is versatility at its finest. Wear with a maxi dress to add a brilliant twist or with a button-down shirt and pencil skirt for a sassy chic look. Available at Intermix
ON-EDGE WEDGE Platform sandals and wedges come back every year and rightly so.They go with everything! Whether in cork, straw, wooden or woven heels, these classics look kickass with shorts, maxi dresses and especially widelegged pants. For a look that’s fun and flirty, choose a pair of espadrille wedges in a bold colour.
MORE IS MORE When it comes to necklaces, more is more, and extra-large pieces are stealing the show! From big beads in earthy colours, to tribal fringe to layers and oversized gems, it’s all about excess.
Available at Strutt
ON DA BLOCK Nothing is better than being comfortable and fashionable at the same time, which makes block heels a smart investment. They add major ladylike glam to any outfit and are great for the office. Update a wrap dress with a pair of bright block heels.
!
TIP
The combination of friendship bracelets, a bangle or three and the boyfriend watch is glamorous and too fresh. Eclectic much?
PEEPING TOOTSIES Booties aren’t just for colder climates anymore! Warm weather adopted them with a new take – boot cut peep-toes! The striped panel lends airy elegance to this neutral pair, making it a chic addition to your wardrobe. Available at Etteza
COLOUR ME BOHO
Summer revives the friendship bracelets of summers ago! The colourful Bohemian accessories complement the saturated colours of summer to a T. Wear en masse or stack them together with your favourite bangles.
BIG BANG THEORY

Oversized bangles are still trendy and they come back fierce this summer, in earthy tones and dazzling brights. They look great alone, but in keeping with this summer’s theme, why wear one when you can wear many? Dress a simple outfit with this trend and punch up your look instantly.
FEMME FATALE The “boyfriend” trend is still on and you don’t need a boyfriend to participate! The boyfriend watch is a men’s inspired watch and definitely a statement piece. It adds the perfect dose of femme to any look. HOW TO WEAR: the key to wearing masculine pieces is to balance them out with feminine pieces. Accompany a ruffled dress with a tailored blazer and the watch to nail the look. The watch is supposed to hang loosely.
BAGS: FROM CUTE AND TINY TO BOLD AND BRIGHT TO OVERSIZED AND STUFFY, SUMMER BRINGS A WHOLE RANGE OF NEW BAGS READY TO TEST.
CLUTCH ME BABY
No more cramming everything into a tiny clutch bag – fit it all in a stylish and practical envelope clutch. This oversized style comes in a variety of materials and colours to match any outfit.
TASTE THE RAINBOW
Punch up a neutral outfit with a colourful bag or turn a simple sundress into a stunner at any party this summer. Available at In Style Plus Mall Internationale Tel 429-8238
THE NEW “IT” BAG
This messenger bag is for those who don’t want to sacrifice style and comfort for convenience. With long shoulder straps and front flap to secure items, this is an extremely versatile bag. Available at Strutt

AFFAIRS SUMMER IS BIG ON LOOSE HAIR WITH OTHER CHOICES SUCH AS BIG BUNS, BRAIDING, SIDE-SWEPT PLAITS, ANDROGENY CHIC SLICKBACKS, WIND-BLOWN BEACHY TEXTURE, AND SURFER STRANDS (COLOUR THAT IS DARKER AT THE ROOTS AND GRADUATES TO LIGHTER AT THE ENDS). WHATEVER LOOK YOU CHOOSE, GIVE HAIR AN EXTRA FLOURISH WITH HAIR ADORNMENTS.
!
TIP
BOHO VIBES PUT A PIN IN
For rustic glitz, use combs adorned with gold or pull back one side with an embellished clip for a look that is feminine and exotic.
Scarves can add a Boho-chic vibe to an outfit and are also super cute. For a demure, sophisticated look, tie a blackand-white print over the crown of the head; for an edgier look that matches a flowing maxi dress, pick a glossy fabric in a bright vivacious pattern and tie around the head.
Pair this look with widebrimmed hats or cat-eye sunglasses to create a unique ’70s look. Heavy eye makeup and nude lips with bed head will lend to a Bohemian effect while minimalistic makeup and accessories help create a formal chic look.
CAT EYE HEADBANDS
From wide, plain headbands to delicate thin ones with flowers or other embellishments on the sides, you can create looks that are sleek or vintage.
Another summer trend on the favourites list, cat-eye style is best suited to heart-shaped and square faces. This My Lady Dior pair will add a fun, funky and sophisticated element to any formal or casual outfit. Available at Sun Collection

TRENDS FROM ROMANTIC BLUSH TO ELECTRIC-COLOUR NAILS, THIS SUMMER’S BEAUTY TRENDS ARE STRAIGHT OUT OF A FAIRY TALE.
HAIR GLOW
If there is one word that sums up this summer’s party look, it’s sparkle. Add shimmer to your tresses and make a “hair statement” with Mizani’s Shimmer Reflects Gel and Shimmer Reflects Spritz. Distributed by Lasco ! Rule 1: never use too much hair glitter. TIP Keep your hairstyle simple and add product gradually in very small amounts. Rule 2: don’t use hair glitter with sparkly make-up unless you want to end up looking like a Christmas tree.
SHADES FOR ALL Accessorize nails this summer with one of the season’s many choices. Give nails a fluorescent glow with neon brights like sunny yellow or attention-getting orange, exude elegance with pinks and reds, or be the chic chick with darker pigments that pop, like turquoise or purple.
LASH OUT
!
TIP
Eyelashes are the perfect accessory, they complete any look! Add that POW effect with eyelash extensions. You can go Barbie-doll pretty with full lashes or opt for spidery lashes for a look that oozes sexy and rebellious.
Contrast a warm lip colour with cool tones on the eye. Red lip colour will go well with the orange, purple and bluegreen on the eyes.
!
TIP
Make sure that you chose the right lashes for your event or lifestyle; you wouldn’t want to walk around the office wearing Lady Gaga eyelashes.
BLUSH BEAUTY
!
TIP
Blush is a must! It adds lift to the face while pulling your makeup look together and looks good on all skin tones. The general rule of thumb is the darker your skin, the brighter the blush. Keep it high on the cheeks for a modern look or apply low on the cheeks for an oldfashioned look.
EYE DRAMA This summer, eye make-up features some dramatic trends that require “pure awesomeness” to pull off. Bright-coloured eyelids accented with bold stripes of neon or swept-out jewel tones are it. Choose a bright palette like orange, purple and blue-green and apply a light layer of each colour with a brush for eyes that will make you the life of the party.
FACE FORWARD
Experience noticeable results with Jevederm and Botox Cosmetic.With no surgery or recovery period you’ll look fresh and fabulous all season long.
Use iridescent colours. They bring out the cheekbones and make skin glisten, giving you a sexy glow. If you have darker skin, pink blushes will look great on you.

OF MANKLES AND ROLL-UPS
What on earth is a mankle? Well, to put it simply, when a man goes out in shoes – without socks – he reveals his mankles and that is tout le rage (all the rage) this summer! With men’s trousers becoming shorter and the regular pair of jeans or chinos being rolled up, men’s ankles have become inescaple and the trend of the summer.

PREPPY STYLE There are so many ways to wear chinos this summer but our favourites are smart and colourful! They are less bulky and therefore create a sleek, crisp look, which produces a modern silhouette that complements all body types and ages. Chino shorts appear in all sorts of brights from cherry reds to warm blues and deep purples. For a smarter look, pair with a button-down with sleeves rolled up just below the elbow or with a plain shirt and blazer.

TIP
If wearing a bold colour on top, choose sun-faded shades which will balance out the colour.
Lanterns Mall, Hastings, Christ Church, Tel : (246) 271 0408
OFFICE CHECKS
!
TIP
Choose more muted colours like greys or blues which will take the edge off the pattern and retain an air of class and formality. Alternatively, pair with a blazer and brogues or jeans for a look that is untouchably GQ.
If you want to make a statement with the plaid rebirth, try mixing with your workwear. Build your look with a plaid shirt. Select a solid tie which complements a subtle colour within the shirt or if you’re feeling brave, match it with a plaid or checked tie. However, make sure the pattern is not the same as the shirt. Alternately you can add plaid to your work look by pairing a block colour shirt with a plaid tie. Available at Cave Shepherd

AYE AYE, CAPTAIN Ahoy, stylish buoy! The nautical style has been refreshed. No longer is it just for yacht owners and the navy; the look has been updated by switching the navy to other tones, like nude, red and black. Join the forces with your colour choice and slip on a pair of comfy deck shoes.
SOLE MATES: THERE ARE THREE SHOE STYLES THAT EVERY STYLISH GENT NEEDS TO HAVE IN HIS CLOSET THIS SUMMER, POINT BLANK, PERIOD!
BOAT/DECK SHOES THE EYES HAVE IT Aviators are still rocking hard and trendy. A little gold, a little vintage, and a lot of “look at sexy over there”, they transcend classic by looking completely new this season. Suitable for both men and women, the Condor by Dita in Satin Black features a fading effect and touches of 18K gold add just enough edge to the classic look.
Boat or deck shoes are undeniably the most versatile choice in footwear this year! They suit a number of different looks: chinos, slim trousers, jeans with bottoms rolled to midcalf, tailored shorts, trousers and blazer. You can opt for a casual, nautical, Boho, formal, and even a smart look with boat shoes. Add flair and GQ to your wardrobe with a pair.

R ITO ED TIP!
ESPADRILLES
TUCK IN
Braided and rope-style leather belts of the ’90s are coming back in all colours and sizes. Generally worn slimmer and longer than traditional belts, they don’t have any set holes in them so you can stick the prong anywhere to get the perfect fit. Dress them up with shorts, a pair of leather sandals and top it off with a straw fedora.
Espa what? S-puh-drills are shoes made of canvas set on a fibrous sole. They are perfect for those who want to look stylish whilst wearing something practical. Light, comfortable and stylish, the shoes with the funny name are a dapper choice for this summer.
For a start in the trend, try a shortsleeved white tee with rolled-up denim shorts or a printed vest with a pair of plain espadrilles.
TIMELESS
Watches have become more playful through time and this summer colour, square faces and gold are the top choices to be worn. Colourful watches evoke a playful nature and make a big statement while the angular square and rectangular designs produce a more refined and modern style. But for those who want to go back to basics, goldplated faces mixed with brown leather straps provide a stylish glow. For a more subtle look, rose gold is a great option.
LEATHER SANDALS With the progression seen in men’s fashion this year with pieces such as rolled-up shorts and pastel colours incorporated into men’s wardrobes, it’s the right time to push personal style slightly further yet again with leather gladiator sandals. They are infinitely more refined than flip flops and slippers and fit quite well with the trends of the year. The key to the look is to wear sandals with modern cuts and crisp shirting. So slim-fit trousers and a bright polo or shirt with buttons undone would show you women unabashedly drooling. Bring your outfits to life this summer with this trend for a relaxed and sophisticated look.

R ITO ED TIP!
Wearing a great pair of sandals will make no difference if you have gnarly-looking feet. Fix it by exfoliating with a foot scrub to leave feet looking good and smelling right. Be sure to keep toenails clean and trimmed.
DAPPER IN CHELSEAS Simple and elegant yet robust and masculine, Chelsea boots are the definitive men’s wear essential. Very versatile, they work well with skinny jeans as they do with a suit. Alternatively you can create a mod or indie look with ease.
