Forget Spring, Summer Is Really the Prime Time to Wear Pastel Colors of All Shades

Plan on incorporating plenty of pastels into your summer wardrobe. (Credit: Courtesy of Zara)

Put quite simply, pastels are synonymous with spring. Whether it's thanks to dyeing all of those Easter eggs or the fact that all of the flowers have finally sprung, the softer shades seem to be naturally associated with the season. But that doesn't mean you can't rock them once summer arrives. Actually, it's highly recommended.

Whether you favor lighter hues of pink, blue, green, purple, yellow, orange, etc., there's an almost infinite list of hot-weather fare to add to your closet. We're talking airy dresses, sleek skirts, linen tops, pleated pants and even a multicolored swimsuit via Versace. Accessories are getting in on the action, too. Tod's classic leather loafers look even better in pale pink. Mango's light yellow slingbacks are guaranteed to jazz up any ensemble. Prada's minty Galleria tote actually goes with almost everything. Trying to save some coin? Go with Wandler's lemon bag or Courrèges' baby blue circle creation.
