If you didn’t know this already, Ultra Violet—a gorgeous, dramatic, deep and celestial blue based purple, is the Pantone Colour of the Year 2018. And a stunning shade like this needs to be a part of our wardrobes, doesn’t it? Here are many ways to wear the runway dominated colour that’s trending this season!
 

Go casual chic

Go casual chic

Ultra violet is a versatile shade, and that means you can literally pair it with any warm/ neutral / black or white shade for a casual chic look. Opt for simple tops like these to incorporate ultra violet in your everyday style!

 

Dress it up

Dress it up

Because the Ultra Violet shade in itself is a bold, powerful shade, it can pretty much ride solo when it comes to looking dressy—choose fun and feminine dresses in the shade and keep your accessories and makeup minimal. Avoid pairing it up with other colours ‘coz you wanna let it do all the talking!
