However, it's not easy to pull off pastel colours because they are quite bright and can turn into a fashion disaster when not styled properly. So, here are some tips to help you perfectly pull off pretty pastel-coloured outfits for spring!

#1 Monochrome style

Choose a pastel colour and stick to it for your entire outfit to avoid pairing it with something that doesn't match. An easy way to nail a monochrome look is by choosing pieces of clothing of the same colour, but in different shades and you will look like a fashionista.

A monochrome look is absolutely stylish and even more so when it's pastel monochrome! We recommend going for colours such as pastel blue, pink and purple as they are colours that are easier to pull off when going for a monochrome look.

#2 Pastel colour + white

If a monochrome look is not your style and you prefer something less loud, try pairing a pastel colour with a neutral colour like white. This is the easiest pairing that will never go wrong!

The white helps to tone down the brightness of the pastel colour while making the entire outfit look more casual and suitable for every day wear.

#3 Crop pastel top + any kind of bottoms

Pair a crop pastel top with any kind of bottoms ranging from skirts, jeans to pants because trust us, it will look good no matter what. This is one of the more popular ways of styling a pastel top as it's flattering on almost anyone.

Just make sure to choose bottoms of the right colour but if you are really not sure how to, pair it with the classic white or black bottoms. You could even pair it with the same colour as your top (in a different shade), going back to the monochrome look tip.

#4 Different pastel colours together

This is slightly trickier as you will have to pair different pastel colours together but stick to a maximum of two different colours and you will be safe! Take inspiration from the images above when thinking about your own pastel-coloured outfit.
