From NY to London, the pastel trend is being seen by day with gorgeous, floaty, Doris Day-style dresses, to the evening with Scarlett Johansson inspired make-up and nails. However I did fear the worst with flash-backs of Alexis Carrington-Colby powder blue power suits with razor-sharp pads or poufs of fabric at the shoulders.
However, I have been delightfully surprised with the styling for this season. The look is fresh, romantic, and soft, with girlie colours such as lemon sherbet, blueberry, mint choc-chip, tutti-fruity, mango sorbet, and strawberry shortcake. Do we eat these, or wear them?
If you are lacking fashion confidence with this trend for the office, our advice is to go for a pastel accessory such as a bag or clutch. We will soon be launching our BAG BY SIZE search option because we know that you need to be ready for the day ahead with the latest techy gadgets, files, an extra pair of shoes and an array of lipsticks and glosses.
So, here are our three of the best office bags in this season’s pastel trend. And we mean business!
1. A chic little number by Chloe – The Chloe Marcie Tote – the perfect size for papers and work essentials.
2. Ta da…one of our favourites here at Bag Servant HQ – the ‘hot’ lemon sherbet Mulberry Bayswater. Iconic, chic and classic.
3. The very stylish Yves St Laurent Cabas ‘Chyc’ Bag in an eye-catching shade of Amethyst.
