Chic & Timeless Colour Combinations for Spring (BQ)
Today I have my favourite colour combinations for Spring for you.
Beautiful neutrals that always look chic and put together.
I’ve prepared a lot of outfits to give you an inspiration for each colour category.
The reason I love the colour approach in creating an outfit is, because it’s so simple!!
Instead of focusing on specific pieces and silhouette you pick the colour combination and then put the items together. It also triggers your creativity to style the clothes you already have in a different way.

In this video I feature gifted items from Fabrique - collective designer platform. I meticulously selected the pieces for their beautiful colours, design and the fabric composition (although I was disappointed when I found out the blazer had polyester lining, which wasn’t specified online).
