color crush | shades of yellow

Uncategorized

April 30, 2025

Hey there SUNSHINE!!! It’s time to officially spread the news with this season’s IT color! It’s been a bit since we’ve dialed into my favorite monthly installment, all things color crush, but I am assuming there will be no surprise when I fill you in on my latest love = also known as the happiest hew that finally gets her moment… all shades of yellow. It’s finally stealing the spotlight and I’m not mad about it! đź’›

Sure, butter yellow has been taking everyone by storm, but I am always one to include others so I’ll take things up a notch and include a few other varietals of yellow = we’re talking major marigold, lovely lemon, bold canary and mustard! I’ve always said that wearing yellow is like wearing a smile = it just makes you feel brighter, lighter and ready to tackle the day.

It’s the color of instant sunshine and one that lifts my spirits no matter what… so I won’t make you wait any longer to give you some stellar yellow moments to incorporate into your closet and leave you with some added inspiration for more mellow yellow fabulousness in apparel, accessories, home and more!

Let’s talk facts, friends. Yellow just hits different in the summer:

  • It flatters sun-kissed skin [hellooo faux bronzed glow ✨]
  • It pairs perfectly with denim, neutrals OR other bolds [colorblock queens, where you at?!]
  • It instantly brings JOY—like a little sun you can wear on repeat!

Whether you’re brunching with your besties, heading to the beach, or just living your best iced-coffee-in-hand Target run life [yes that’s me], yellow brings the magic. First things first, let’s talk details on these Butter Yellow Wide Leg Crop Jeans [wearing size 24, run a bit large] from LOFT. You know they always bring out the best in denim that doesn’t break the bank and these high rise beauties are no exception = the fantastic slightly stretchy fit + crop silhouette that’s perfect for showing off those summer shoes… they are absolutely an add to cart moment! I love how you can take a standard pair of jeans but incorporate them in a fun perfect pale yellow colorway and it just hits different! As for the top, it’s another new arrival from LOFT, too = this versatile Linen Cotton Pocket Vest [wearing size XXS/runs TTS] is a neutral lover’s dream. Structured yet simple, the breathable linen fabrication screams summer staple and of course I adore the tailored fit for helping your OOTD look a bit more polished and preppy.

And for extra incorporation of some color, I layered it up with my latest Hot Girl Summer Stack and Mama Necklace Trio from Allie + Bess, the woven mini Hollace Tote in Mint from Anthropologie and these fabulous White Out Woven Espadrilles from Dolce VIta!

Ready for more ways to wow them in yellow this season??? Let me break it down for you with some of my favorite sunny staples:

Mellow Yellow Swimwear | Sunshine in a swimsuit… they are IT right now. Add a retro pair of sunnies and you’re pool-party perfect that acts as a go-to summer mood booster

An Easy Breezy Midi Dress | Give me all the flowy, twirl-worthy, tiered goodness. Add a straw hat and chunky sandals and you’re set!

Bold Yellow Shorts | Take a simple white tank/top and then incorporate a pop of pleasant with bright + cheerful shorts… layer it up with statement jewelry or simple gold accessories and you’ve got a winning everyday ensemble

Floral Prints with Yellow Accents | If solid brights aren’t your thing, a fun floral with a few happy yellow details might be your new BFF!

A Bag Full of Sunshine | Not ready to commit to the full look? Start with accessories and ease into the vibe of every color option of yellow

Let this summer be your season of bold choices, bright colors, and being unapologetically YOU. Yellow isn’t just a color—it’s a mood. It’s cheerful, confident, and oh-so-fun. And if you ask me? You were made to shine all season long! Now go grab that limoncello, throw on your cutest yellow fit, and twirl into summer with the happiest hue of all! 💛
