How to Wear It

The Light Summer guide to wardrobe, makeup & jewelry

Wardrobe

Stay light and cool: soft white with powder pink, light grey with sky blue, cool beige with lavender. Avoid black entirely — too heavy. If you need a dark, use soft navy or slate. Tonal pastel dressing is especially flattering.

Makeup

Sheer and cool: rose or pink blush, soft berry or rose lip, cool taupe shadows, brown — not black — mascara. Heavy contour and matte black eyeliner age Light Summers visibly.

Jewelry

Silver, white gold, light platinum, pearl.
