Summer might finally have arrived, but my wardrobe still seems to be stuck in last season. Crying out for some summer energy, this month I’m planning on treating it to a mini makeover by means of introducing some fresh, summer-ready shades.
To kick-start my quest, naturally, I’ve looked to my favourite celebrities for inspiration, and of course, they delivered it in droves. Creating elegant ensembles with the prettiest colour palettes, each look I found delivers summer spirit, whilst retaining the expensive-looking energy that I always aim to have running through my wardrobe.
Whilst the outfits I’ve been inspired by might look expensive because of their designer labels attached, you can absolutely emulate them on a tighter budget thanks to the elegant and premium-looking colour choices in each look.
If you too are keen to treat your collection to a small summer upgrade, read on to discover the four expensive-looking colour trends I’m stealing from the following four celebrities this summer.
DISCOVER THE FOUR EXPENSIVE-LOOKING SUMMER SHADES CELEBRITIES LOVE:
1. ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY + BUTTER YELLOW
Style Note: The butter-yellow colour trend has been huge this summer and for good reason. Offering a more playful alternative to the cream and beige shades we so often reach for when styling a neutral base, this fresher shade lends a summery feel to any look it touches. Layering well with rich browns, deep blacks and sparkling golds, the butter yellow colour is the elevated summer trend that celebrities have been reaching for on repeat this season.
SHOP THE BUTTER YELLOW COLOUR TREND:
& Other Stories
Fitted Linen Blazer
Style with the matching waistcoat and trouser or wear with a butter yellow skirt.
Reformation
Brandy Linen Skirt
This also comes in three other shades.
This comes in sizes 6—24.
2. KENDALL JENNER + LILAC
Style Notes: Like a breath of fresh air, this pretty colour trend lends lively energy to any outfit via its charming and pleasing tone. Styling well with dark burgundy shades, the lilac colour trend looks all the more summer-ready when worn with bright whites or light creams. Ideal for styling for long summer evenings, this elegant colour will give your looks the warm-weather edge they’ve been calling out for.
SHOP THE LILAC COLOUR TREND:
& Other Stories
Strappy Linen Midi Dress
The linen composition makes this naturally breathable.
Mango
Satin Cape Style Blouse
The cape effect gives this an elegant edge.
This playful mini is perfect for styling throughout the height of summer.
3. JASMINE TOOKES + OLIVE GREEN
Style Note: Rich and moody, the chic colour trend might not spring to mind when conjuring the idea of a summer palette. Whilst it’s not the sunshine yellow that you may have expected, this rich-looking shade offers an earthy and grounded tone that layers well with jewels and rich shades for a dynamic outfit that can see you through the entire season.
SHOP THE OLIVE GREEN COLOUR TREND:
The drop-waist skirt trend is set to be everywhere this summer.
Mango
Asymmetrical Pleated Dress
Style with a simple chain necklace or pair with statement studs.

4. LAURA HARRIER + CHOCOLATE BROWN
Style Notes: Be it summer, autumn, winter or spring, the chocolate brown colour trend remains one of my go-to shades across the year. Naturally opulent and expensive looking, you can give the rich shade a summer edge by pairing it with a lighter tone such as a peachy shade, or vivid orange to conjure a vibrant warm-weather feeling.
SHOP THE CHOCOLATE BROWN COLOUR TREND:

One-Shoulder Midi Dress
