If you’ve been considering your spring outfits and musing on some wardrobe additions to help get the most out of them, then you’ve come to the right place.
I’ve been scouting, analysing and monitoring the season’s most relevant trends and I’ve just stumbled across one that’s chic, easy to integrate to your wardrobe. Beating out the rest on simplicity, this season I’m suggesting the butter yellow top trend to all who will listen.
Mirroring the daffodils and the streams of sunlight that surround us, the sunshiny shade evokes the joyful energy of spring in ways very few other colour trends ever could.
An elegant ensemble when styled with swishy skirts and tailored trousers, I think this trend really comes to life when worn with classic jeans. Complimenting blue-toned denim perfectly, this pairing ensures a sleek and wearable outfit base that styles well with flats during the day, yet pairs just as chicly with a pointed-toe heel and a chocolate brown layer come dusk.
Across the high street and throughout designer brands, the yellow top trend is peaking through. In the form of blouses, shirts, tees and light knits, a number of labels are experimenting with the pretty tone this spring—and they’re tempting me away from my classic white tees in the process.
In a butter yellow palette, this shade isn’t a million miles away from a warm cream, making it a versatile, nearly neutral tone that can bring a light wash of colour into your looks.
From COS’s elegant button-down—that I’ll be pairing with denim throughout the rest of the season—to Dôen’s supremely pretty pale yellow blouse, read on to discover our edit of the best butter yellow tops below.
