How Fashion People Will Wear the New Millennial Pink
Step aside, blush tones. There’s a new pastel shade we’re ready to embrace this year. Ever since Pantone announced the 2018 Color of the Year (Ultra Violet), all shades of purple have been on our minds. But it’s the lighter shade of the color that’s catching our eyes. Mark our words: Dreamy, Insta-worthy lavender is about to be everywhere. In fact, fashion girls are already embracing the color. Keep scrolling for instant outfit inspiration that incorporates the lighter shade of year’s It color.
Give the suiting trend a fresh update in this bold color.
The streetwear crowd will embrace lavender like this in their outfits.
Fashion girls won’t just be testing out the color trend, they’ll be playing with equally vibrant hues to create cool color combos.
We’re really into the colorful-sock trend, and this look is a perfect example of how to pull it off. Our tip? Wear them with open-toed sandals.
This is one we’ve never thought of before: Opt for a more neutral palette when testing out colorful tights.

We’ll be swapping all our coats for extra-furry toppers in this pastel tone.

The color pairs so well grey checks.
You can’t go wrong with a classic jeans-and–ankle boots outfit.
