Like strawberries and cream, pastels and Spring are destined for each other. Soft, delicate tones thrive in this season and add a bit of feminine flair for those sunny afternoons.
But wearing pastels is a whole other story. We’ve tackled the baby pinks, tangerines and canary yellows to find you the most on-trend additions to your wardrobe:
