news/whats-your-flavour

Like all elements in life, colours play a significant role in evoking feelings and emotions. They can make you feel certain emotions the same way a familiar scent or an old song can. 

Red: Passion, excitement love and anger. 

A stimulating colour that grabs your attention, for danger or urgency. It increases the heart rate. Get your partners heart racing too with this Satin Red bralette

For a more powerful look, try a blazer like this one from Materiel to channel your inner boss.

Blue: Serenity, melancholy, trust, calmness.

A blue sky, a blue ocean, the blues…an array of calming and nostalgic emotions. Blue symbolises reliability and professionalism. 

A summer vacay in a top. Palm trees on a blue sky backdrop, does it get better than that?

Try a pop of a blue in your accessories, experiment with these blue enamel and gold hoops to make your outfit pop.

And to keep it lowkey, chill summer vibes- think Venice beach California an afternoon of skating through the sunshine rays. We love these five-0 sneakers from Nahmias 

Yellow: happy, bright, energetic.

Something to boost your day, in small doses though as in excess it can evoke anxiety and frustration. A chic beach pareo to compliment a day in the sun taking in the rays and catching that tan. You can even use it in summer clothes like this silk slip dress by Natasha Zinko for a flirty summer vibe. 

Cant forget the classic yellow gold, for elegance, versatility and the ultimate chic touch to your style. An 18k stack yellow gold band is forever on our dream Wishlist

Green: harmony, calm, freshness, balance and envy. 

Memories of nature, a moment of serenity. Green is versatile and a symbol of tranquility, health and growth. Think summer weddings in nature, this is the perfect wedding guest dress in sage green. For a little pop of green to ground you with nature and harmony, you can layer this forest green necklace with gold charms for a cool holiday stack vibe. Cant forget the classic favourite combination of emerald stones with gold in this stack ring by Spinelli Kilcollin. 

Purple: spirituality, mystery, luxury and creativity.

A colour to evoke creativity and connecting with your higher self. Feel beautiful and powerful in this purple two piece bikini to stand out from the crowd. Even add some metallic like this soft leather lilac metallic gem from Marina c for a cool girl 90’s vibe. 

Orange: excitement, warmth and enthusiasm. 

A bright and happy emotions evoking colour. Stand out in the pool with this bright orange unique bikini. With wraparound straps and a unique material, you are sure to feel more excited!

Pink: love, playfulness, and compassion.

Think barbie world- pink evokes joy and femininity to the maximum. Its a colour of love and softness, more playful than red and more striking than purple. Not only for women, we love a pop of pink in mens clothing like this summer silk shirt from Blue Sky Inn. For the girlies, nothing will make you feel more confident and feminine on the beach than this ultra flattering and comfortable bikini in frosting pink

If you just want a pop of pink, opt for this heart crystal necklace that will add a touch of playfulness to your outfit. 

Black: elegance, melancholy, mystery, power and elegance. 

A strong powerful colour, a colour that suits everybody and is a staple in everyones wardrobe as a perfect base that is flattering and easy to wear. This classic black leather bag is perfect to slip on your shoulder and wear every day whether its to the office or for dinner and drinks at night. Pair it with this asymmetric black stretch dress thats our new summer favourite- super elegant, powerful and adds a touch of mystery with the one sleeve and one leg aspect. 

White: simplicity, minimalistic, purity and cleanliness. 

A calm and serene colour, a great base colour and evokes emotions of simple joy and serenity. It can also evoke feelings of isolation but in fashion its used in all collections. From beach apparel like this classic white pareo that can be used as a sarong, or tied like a top for versatility. For a summery feminine look, this slit white maxi skirt is perfect to pair with any top- we love a monochromatic look without too much detail to distract from the silhouette. 

For everyday you cant go wrong with a classic white tee, especially a staple in mens fashion like this white oversized back slogan tee by Nahmias

Try a white maxi dress for ultimate elegance and a clean fashion look.  

Grey: neutral, uncertainty and neutrality. 

A casual colour that can be dressed up or down. Typically seen in fashion in a a more casual manner when looking at light or heather grey items. This zip up grey hoodie is something you’d wear everyday, to run errands, go to the cafe, working out. For a more elevated grey, try a silk grey shirt with lightening bolt details by Marc Jacques Burton. 

Brown: warmth, comfort, stability and security. 

An earthy, neutral colour that evokes security and stability. We find brown to be extremely versatile in styling, very underrated in fashion, flattering on most skin types and a chic and different vibe to black. We love this eco leather pencil skirt for a beautiful and different night time look.
