Hanging out with Boden: my day in technicolour



That's me at the Boden Hangout wearing more colour and make up than ever before. For someone who usually spends their life in neutrals, I felt surprisingly comfortable at saturation point. Funny, eh? Must be the Sue Kreitzman Effect. Next to me are the lovely Christine from Fash n Chips (best name for a blog, ever) and to her left, Laura Fantacci from Red magazine and Wearing it Today.



Are you courageous with colour - or do you shy away from vibrant shades?

  2. I shy away from color! But I know I need to give it more of a go. Same with make-up, I am a lazy one. You all look terrific.

  3. I love great flashes of colour on a neutral palette. By investing more in quality neutrals, you can afford to have fun with colour and discover the colours that suit you before spending too much on a mistake. This is why I love cowls aka infinity scarves this winter - nothing but bright colour!

  4. I like bright color in simple doses. And I liove a bright lipstick if everything else is neutral.

  10. I definitely wear a lot of black but lately I've been adding more colour. I find that it makes me look happier and younger. In a few years I suspect I will look like a crayola box.

  12. You look great in those brights! I'm a little colour-shy myself. I find that my miniscule wardrobe works best with neutrals that can all go with each other. However, I have started wearing more makeup recently, including red lippy, I think mainly because I've had my hair all shorn off again, and my face seems to need it!

  15. You do look gorgeous in that outfit. Are these colours you would consider adding to your wardrobe?

  16. You look lovely! Yes, colour all the way for me - I can cope with black, but grey is drab, and beige makes me want to cry! xxxx

  17. What fun to be "hanging out at Boden!" And I agree with all above, you look mahhhvelous. I am a neutral girl, but can't resist yellow and orange. You will find flashes of it in many things I wear. Those colors just cheer me up.

  18. I own mostly black gray and white but find myself recently being drawn to reds and purples. I've gone in and out on colors before and wondering if this new color need for me is due to a new residence and less stressful circumstances. Something to consider.
    You should definitely add a few brights to your wardrobe...totally wakes up your face. You look lovely.
