We love lilac! 4 stylish ways to wear the colour
Among our favourite spring/summer 2022 fashion trends falls the colour lilac. Pretty, feminine, and decidedly spring-like, the pastel shade is taking over the Instagram and TikTok feeds of fashion darlings from coast-to-coast. For inspiration on how to style the colour, check out these four outfits below.
1. Wear it with green
While green and lilac may seem an unlikely colour combo, the pairing of the two is perfect for spring. If a pair of lime green pants is too far of a stretch for you (no judgment), try one of these cute accessories instead.

2. Tone it down with neutrals
While we would love nothing more than to wear head-to-toe lavender, we understand the colour is in itself a bold choice for some. To lessen its Easter-like connotations, pair it with a neutral pant or dress.

3. Accentuate the colour with pink
Sometimes if you’re going to do it, you just need to do it. That means instead of toning down an all-lilac look with neutral black or beige accessories, go full force and grab a pair of pink sunnies to hit the town.
