Summer is finally here, but my wardrobe still seems to be stuck in last season's. I'm craving some summer energy, so this month I'm going to give it a little makeover by incorporating some fresh, summery colors.
Naturally, to begin this quest, I looked to my favorite celebrities for inspiration, and of course, they inspired me in droves. Creating elegant ensembles in the most beautiful color palettes, each style I found channels the spirit of summer while retaining the luxe energy that I always want to infuse into my wardrobe.
The outfits that inspire me may look expensive because they have designer labels, but they can absolutely be replicated on a smaller budget thanks to the elegant and luxurious colors used in each outfit.
If you too are looking to upgrade your collection a bit and get into the summer swing of things, read on to find out the four pricey-looking color trends I'm copying from these four celebrities this summer.
Here are four luxurious summer shades that celebrities love.
1. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley + butter yellow
Style Notes: The butter yellow colour trend is all the rage this summer, and for good reason. A more playful alternative to the creams and beiges often used to style neutral bases, this fresh colour will add a summery vibe to any look. Pairing well with rich browns, deep blacks and shiny golds, butter yellow is an elevated summer trend that celebrities are loving on and off this season.
