October’s favourite colour scheme is officially food-inspired. Yes ladies, we’re talking about the classic and delightful berry yogurt parfait. In this case, it’s a delectable mix of blue, red and violet shades. Mixing bold colours can be scary, but consider the newest colour combo an easy A. The secret is to choose bright and jewel toned berry tints, such as cobalt, crimson and deep violet. The Giambattista Valli and Elie Saab fall collections both showed pearly white dresses and toppers to die for, so don’t forget to top your berries off with some deliciously fabulous white.
