Ignore this outdated fashion rule - Helen Skelton's Argyle knit and skirt prove burgundy and pink is a stunning combination

Helen Skelton attends the TV Choice Awards 2026 at Hilton Park Lane on February 02, 2026.

There are so many unofficial fashion rules when it comes to mixing and matching different colours and wearing pink and red together is one that I definitely ignore. I’m not the only one either as Helen Skelton has been loving a traditional Argyle-patterned cardigan in recent months and it features pops of burgundy and blossom-pink.

She just re-wore this affordable - and now sadly sold-out - Primark cardigan on BBC Morning Live, styled with a patent burgundy skirt and matching pointy boots. The base tone of this collared knit is a soft dove grey which is a big spring/summer fashion colour trend for 2026, as is pastel pink.
