In the yellow

Sometimes you never know when a look is going to bite you on the backside and take you with it. The fashion look I have loved the most is the MaxMara all over yellow. In fact I have been overly impressed with the MaxMara collection, it seems to strike the right balance of drawing on the old, 1930s sportswear and injecting the new, this new fangled colour blocking.

If I had the figure for it I would wear these looks without a thought..oh yes and the bank balance might come in handy too, forgot that minor detail.

Which colour are you going to major on for Spring Summer 2011?

And I would really want to wear yellow with dusky pink or pale pink shoes. My new obsession is pale pink shoes!

  1. I was just lusting after a pair of pale pink Valentino shoes today - with big exuberant bows on the front they were fabulous.
    Green has always been my go-to colour, but I have been fancying some red lately.

    i don't think i look good in color. my cheeks are too ruddy and my hair is too curly. i don't want people buying me lollipops.

  3. This shade of yellow is just perfect, I love the second outfit! I don't think I'll be channelling one colour head to toe, but I will wear red and also electric blue this summer xx

  4. I LOVE the second look - my shorts days are well and truly over sadly.
    Been lusting after orange so will be wearing it with white, neutrals and dashes of orange and electric blue for Spring/Summer.

  6. I know, I've been impressed with them as well. I love how sometimes there comes a brand that I never really think about much, and it totally blows my mind! I think yellow will be my choice for the upcoming season too, it's so bright and fun and makes everything seem much shinier! :)

  8. Dear Kate, I love it. I want a really brightly coloured pair of wedges, I've spotted a few I like so far. I will blog them if I get them. Have a lovely weekend, we must get together soon, although it's all about to go mental with fashion week xx

  9. Yellow, sadly, is not for me - I've never found a single shade that suits. I'm sticking to my cobalt blues, blood reds and emeralds...

  10. I must admit I'm really becoming a fan of yellow, I have a acid yellow cardigan that I bought for work and you wouldn't believe how many negative comments I received about it - everyone needs to embrace the yellow! I'd be really interested in seeing you style an yellow outfit with pale pink shoes. I have a pair of Topshop unique pale pink shoes that are lovely. I will do a post for you. xx
