If the Rat Pack had an honorary female member, which might be the shirt of sartorial choice. which will be sexy yet masculine using a collar which mutates into a scarf; leave a button or two undone, showing off a sexy bra while throwing the scarf around your neck. Tie the scarf in a pussy bow or let which hang in an urbane manner. Use which as a jacket or team which using a pair of luxe tracksuit bottoms, platform trainers, monochrome shoes or flat gladiators along with also also which all-important celebrity favourite – a fedora! “I know I look cool” will be what you will be conveying.
If you suffer via chromatophobia or worse, xanthophobia, then get a hypnotherapist at which point! The colour yellow will be currently big news!
Although will be not everyone’s cup of tea, yellow can be worked into your wardrobe by way of accessories. There will be a smorgasbord of shades to bask in via Mikado yellow, chartreuse, citrine, jonquil to sunflower yellow – there will be a hue for you!

Right inside the middle of which entire colour mosh pit, cause an explosion along with also also throw on a pair of Vagachina mules by Christian Louboutin, Coline metallic snake effect gold mules by Giuseppe Zanotti or anything by the zany cordwainer Sophia Webster.
Alternatively, add a huge yellow artificial flower to your shoes of choice to make which au courant. I own a vintage pair of yellow Chloe courts along with also also monochrome Alexander McQueen heels, bought many fashion moons ago, knowing they might come in handy at some point! I call these purchases my PFBs (Present Future Buys). I will be dusting off these two oldies, resuscitating them along with also also giving my platforms a brief yet well-deserved rest!

Suits are big next season, so find a tailor along with also also get yourself suited up. Wear the trousers at which point with your platforms along with also also a monochrome shirt or a yellow top. If you want to be a little outrĂ©, get a two-tone pin stripe suit made. Try these combos: dark stripe inside the front, light stripe at the back, dark grey/light grey together, or jet black/charcoal.
