So “What’s in this Spring / Summer?†I hear you all cry… after all, it’s almost payday and we need to update our summer wardrobe… Well, I am happy to say that Nude colours for 2010 are HOT!
Fleshy tones have been extremely popular in footwear and makeup over the last few seasons, and at long last, it has finally made its way into apparel, which I am absolutely delighted about! So much so, that I just bought my first pair of flesh-coloured, sky scraper Toni Bianco heels last week and they are absolutely stunning!
You know, the great thing about nude footwear is that you can wear them with anything; from your trusty old sidekick – the little black dress – to a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, you will always be ready to look show-stopping whatever the occasion! Not only that, but having a fleshy tone on your feet elongates the legs to make them look extra long, so even us little shorties can pull off that supermodel look!
These neutral colours are so diverse and easy to wear, but it’s also very important to know how to wear nude properly without appearing starkers! So, the first rule is to make sure you pick out the right kind of fabric; anything too tight will appear like you have an extra layer of skin, and we don’t want that now do we!?
They should drape or hang from the body, this should be easy to find as sheer fabrics are also big at the moment, especially since the look for spring 2010 is light and feminine, but try not to look too girly by teaming it up with some contrasting accessories, killer heels and a sprinkling of attitude on top! Below are a few of my favourite high street picks & some cheeky nude dresses from my favourite designer Versace.
So start hitting that high street ladies, or even have a look in your wardrobe – you’re bound to have something in there that fits the bill, after all, nude is seen as a neutral shade so I’m sure there will be a few items worth saving in there somewhere!
If you haven’t got any old threads hanging in that wardrobe of yours, why not have a peep in your underwear drawer? Yes ladies you heard me right, underwear is now fashionable as outerwear… So get those bodysuits and corsets out because they are in!
You may have seen on Big Brother launch night last summer, I actually wore a black corset from Agent Provocateur, teamed with leggings and minimal jewellery, sounds daring I know, but corsets can give a sophisticated yet fun & sexy look.
So it’s official ladies, its time to get nude!!

Loving the nude colour, at least it doesn’t make pasty coloured Scots folk look too pale unlike other colours that have been a season colour.
I love the style of shoes thats in just now but like I’ve never had a pair over the years that I kept on my feet after a nightout…….I’ve landed up barefooted and comfy..lol
Prefer your corset for the show than the nude one……now that reminds me too much o the corsets that grannies wear;)
ill definitely take all that into consideration and put it into practice as best as possible so that i can look my best when im out and about lol

Hi there ! I love those shoes. I am a big nude fan as it complements my skin tone fabulously.
