Coral, schmoral.

Apparently the colour du jour ( actually 2012 ) for fashion is coral and all its variations.

Soft apricots, blush pinks, vanilla yellows, brandy snap orange.

These reinventions of the wheel always make me giggle, come ON people, we are talking PEACH here aren't we? Out and out 1982 peach. Lets be brutally frank.

Its a tricky colour to pull off to unless you are 16 and buy your clothes in Topshop.

However, aforementioned colour does blend beeyootifully with dark reds, creams and the palest of nude pinks.
Or if you are brave, acid yellow. Its an American thing and they are traditionally bolder than us in their colour combining. I'm hoping for some weddings this year that are so hip it hurts, gonna embrace it. Keep an eye on us and lets see what happens.

But you will never, ever get me to wear peach lipstick or coral blusher......

Again. Ever.
