Colour is a tricky thing to take on - spending your days mixing and matching neutrals or wearing head-to-toe black is MUCH simpler.
But now that summer has (nearly) arrived, it's time to take your head out from under that black winter coat and into the realm of brights.
The key to mixing your colours is simple: wear them in blocks or in a matchy matchy print from top to toe.
These are our fave colour combinations for the season ahead. Hot orange really will go with most other colours - pinks, blues, greens - so use that as your base and layer more colours on top.
If you're too nervous to go top-to-toe in bright hues, this rusty red also looks great with camo - a huge trend for the new season and the perfect match to Rimmel London's 60 Seconds Super Shine Nail Polish in Green with Envy.
