How to wear yellow
Yellow is one of the most uplifting colours to wear, but not every yellow suits every person. By understanding your seasonal colour palette, you can find the perfect yellow to complement your natural colouring, brighten your complexion and enhance your overall look. Whether you're a Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter, choosing the right shade of yellow can help you look more radiant, confident and effortlessly put together.
Yellows for Autumns
Yellow lends itself to Autumns very well - the golden undertone of Autumn is seen in its truest form in the various shades of yellow in your palette, so there is a variety of yellows that cover the full scope of the palette.
Your yellows range from a warm yellow ochre and mustard to softer old gold, vanilla and corn, and even vibrant neon yellow for the bolder among you.
After having it drummed into that all your shades are cool, vibrant and either deep or icy, it can seem just wrong to attempt to add yellow into the mix, but chosen carefully a yellow can really change the feel of your outfits, giving you a lightness that can be hard to achieve with some of your more stark colours, perfect for warmer weather.
Yellows for Winter and Summer
For both the cool seasons (Winter and Summer) your yellow has to fall within a fairly narrow range in order to work - as a Winter you need absolutely no golden undertones, and a real feel of neon acidity to your yellow.
Yellows for Spring
As a Spring, you really were designed to wear yellow, perhaps more than any other season. Whichever end of the Spring palette you fall at, there's likely to be a great yellow for you.
Yellow can feel a little counter-intuitive for the cool seasons (it's yellow - how can it not be yellow based?!), but adding just the right shade of yellow to your wardrobe can really multiply your outfit options and lift the other colours in your palette to give them a totally different feel.
The yellows in your palette all fall within a fairly narrow range - you need a distinctly pastel shade, with definite softness and no creamy or golden undertones at all. As Summer's 'right' yellow is so limited, Kettlewell actually only make one yellow for Summers, available this season in the classic and v neck tees.
