Black looks regal and ethereal, and white is fresh and bright – two colours that really stand out when it comes to fashion trends. But do these colours match your personality and lifestyle too?

The classic combination of black and white is a classic that will never go out of style. Women’s dresses in these styles are most popular in the winter season, as they are great for showing off under the warm summer sun. However, they can also be worn all year round.

As with any outfit, you should pick the right colours depending on the time of year. Bright, fiery colours such as red and orange are great for spring and summer, whereas neutral tones are better suited for the fall and winter months.

A more traditional look that works well for the autumn and winter seasons is purple. Purple will always look elegant, whether you pair it with a darker shade of green or a brighter hue such as orange.

Pastel colours are ideal for spring and summer. Look for styles that have the versatility to be worn all year round. If you prefer bright, fiery colours like red and orange, then opt for styles that have a splash of colour like short sleeve shirts with fiery print patterns.
