Love pastels but not a fan of the usual sweet, saccharine hues? Opt for a different approach to colour by working with muted tones. To prevent your look from being too pedestrian, incorporate simple patterns, like this asymmetrical striped silk dress. A dusty blue bucket bag will also give your outfit a great pop of colour without overpowering the entire look.

Minimalist fashion doesn't have to mean boring. If you're partial to netural colours, make sure to pick clothing pieces with interesting design details and streamlined silhouettes. We love the juxtaposition between this flowy shirt dress and a tailored blazer. Finish off the look with one of this season's most popular bag styles—the bucket bag.
