Sporty Pastels

Pastel shades have been making headlines since last year and this year too they have a lot to offer us. Sporty pastels look very impressive with a sense of delicacy and femininity. Colors like fairy floss pink and baby blues are normally seen in elegant gowns but who would think that they might look equally spectacular in laid-back casual silhouettes. These candy pastels are blended with active wear in simple but contemporary silhouettes such as tank tops, cropped sweats, tracksuit jackets and yoga pants. Whereas a single pastel shaded active wear outfit looks classy, a combination of mixed colors creates further interest by enhancing necklines or stripe placements. As shown on the runway, sporty pastels work well with organic cotton knits or silky linens, giving them a nice sheen and sustainable lightweight fabric. You might think on different ways to style this look, so you can follow these tips: wear an oversized bomber jacket over a pair of culottes and pointy flats; wear a pretty dress under a baby pink or a mint green jacket; or try a crop top with a midi skirt and sporty detailing.
