Whether you pick one piece or be daring and colour block multiple shades, accessorised with rose gold, pink is the colour for autumn. From an investment piece, my pick, the Dior clutch with luxe beading, or a simple pretty printed T-shirt, there is no shortage of pink in stores this season.
Here are my top picks.

Top tips:
Not everyone can wear pastels. However, blush pink is officially neutral. While it works with navy and black, we prefer to team this shade with white; cream, beige and grey.
Complete the look with some delicate rose gold and pearl jewellery and consider added texture with a suede or metallic handbag. If your skin and hair are cool, rather than warm, switch out rose gold for silver.
Blush pink is the perfect shade to wear with faded boyfriend jeans. It's the ideal ladylike/rock chic combo balancing the sweetness of pink with an everyday look in denim.
This fashion trend that requires a bold beauty look play up a smoky eye in grey or black and add a nude glossy lip.
