Blue or pink, pastels look incredible when worn the monochrome way. Choose the same colour palette from top to bottom and you’re ready to slay. From a monochrome jumpsuit, crop top with a lehenga skirt or simple kurta pyjamas, you’re going to look like a diva when you match the outfits. You can even choose shoes in a similar pastel shade to not break the combination.

Mix and Match

The ideal way to style pastels is by mixing two pastel coloured outfits together to create a soft yet statement look. You can also experiment with pastel hues in accessories to ensure that your outfit stands out, similar to this unique look created by Raisin.

Make it New(utral)!

Yes, a little bit of creativity and it will look like you have an all-new outfit! Wondering how? Imagine an all-white outfit with a pastel scarf. Sounds gorgeous, right? Ideal for summer/spring, this is a style that won’t go overboard if you aren’t too sure how pastels will suit your skin.

Brighten ‘em up!

Want to make a striking appearance? Mix your pastel outfit with a brighter contrasting shade. From accessories, shoes to even bottoms, you can brighten your pastel outfit just the way you want. Make a gentle yet bold choice by mixing a pastel kurta with a brighter jacket or a scarf. If you love experimenting with shoes, a bright popping red over any pastel dress is bound to give you a perfect look!
