Now that spring is upon us, monochrome black and bleak outfits are dated. Outfits with pops of peach, coral, and baby-pink are eye-catching, warm, and reflect the blossoming new season.

Off-beat variants of red like coral and peach flatter many different skin complexions; these colors also transition well into summer and fall wardrobes. Wear coral if you want to feel bold and fun; peach is more subtle yet emanates romance. What color cardigan, shoes, a nd accessories you pair with coral and peach pieces depends on what look you want to evoke:

Pair peach and coral with:

• Brown and taupe for an earthy, Bohemian feel
• Navy blue for a nautical look
• Black for a classy, refined outfit
• Other related reds and purples for artistic unity
• White for a crisp summer look
• Grey and ivory for a soft and romantic feel

This week I bought the peach Sparkle & Fade Ruffle Tank from Urban Outfitters, and I’m in love with its soft color and feminine ruffles. As for coral tops and dresses, Forever 21 also a plethora of unique, reasonably-priced items in their casual spring collection.
