Colour is no doubt among the most effective elements in any wardrobe. Even in the smallest doses, the best shades can change an outfit, inject character and uplift your state of mind. Ive constantly appreciated this truth, but I need to admit that my personal design has long leaned towards a neutral scheme. Dont get me wrong– I love seeing others in lively tones and often find myself bookmarking vibrant pieces in brand-new collections, yet Ive always felt most comfortable buried deep in neutrals. Theres something about the simplicity and adaptability of blacks, whites and beige tones that talks to my minimalist heart and my transitional wardrobe.That being said, there are a few pieces efficient in coaxing me out of my comfort zone from time to time, and this season, Mango has actually taken the lead. The brand name, currently a staple in my wardrobe, has consistently delivered ageless basics that form the foundation of my pill closet. I own numerous of the brands foundational pieces, from completely cut trousers to flexible button-downs and crew-neck T-shirts. These are the products I reach for time and again, the unsung heroes of my daily ensembles.So, when Mango launched the new Through The Colour Lens collection, I was captivated– and unsurprisingly, it didnt disappoint.Mangos most current collection is a trend-hitting and vibrant celebration of summertime. It includes a dynamic hot-weather combination with pieces in punchy orange, fuchsia and saturated green through to soft pastels. The offering is so energising that I was currently preparing my attire before we (myself and Rebecca Rhys-Evans, senior fashion and beauty editor for branded content), might get our hands on the collection.I was thinking of the light green cotton button-down and matching shorts for a nice summertime brunch look or the semi-transparent printed trousers thatll be a beach favourite– they express various facets of my design, albeit a tad more colourful. Using light and airy fabrics contributes to the collections summery feel, making each piece perfect for the incoming heat.We sifted through the products to display the collections heroes together with other Mango staples and discovered some brand-new favourite clothing along the way. Keep scrolling to see what we selected to use and how we styled these enjoyable finds.Style Notes: For my first appearance, I decided to dip my toe in with the sheer Flowy Textured Blouse (₤ 50) as the centrepiece. This flowy, textured layer in a striking shade of green included an immediate touch of freshness and vigor to the otherwise white clothing. I felt that the mix of the green button-down with a premium cotton T-shirt and cotton parachute trousers developed an ideal balance in between delicate, structured and unwinded, with casual pants grounding a spirited top.The white leather ballerinas matched the light, airy feel of the ensemble whilst the maxi Flower Pendant Earrings (₤ 16) acted as the final flourish, bringing an enjoyable touch that tied the entire look together. This look is ideal for exploring brand-new summertime spots or enjoying a relaxed brunch with friends, and I can easily see myself using this to a garden party or for a leisurely afternoon at an outside café, where a gentle breeze would contribute to the materials movement.Shop the Look:

Style Notes: Here, I decided to embrace the complete spectrum of Mangos vibrant accessories. I started with the Ramie Shirt With Pockets in Ochre (₤ 36) coupled with the 100% Wideleg Linen Trousers (₤ 50) in the exact same vibrant color– a vibrant choice for me but one that produced a cohesive and eye-catching ensemble that immediately raised my mood. The bright green oversized Natural Fibre Shopper Bag (₤ 60) was the star of the appearance as it offered a strong contrast yet worked wonderfully with the orange t-shirt and trousers. The Flower Pendant Earrings in Orange (₤ 18) and black Ballerinas With Mesh Bracelet (₤ 50) included extra character, mixing convenience and style.This would be a perfect try to find making a statement without sacrificing convenience, like for a vibrant outdoor market, shopping or sightseeing on holiday.Shop the Look:

“Summer provides me an excuse to experiment with vibrant hues, prints and transparent fabrics,” she says, and that is exactly what this look is all about. The Crochet Flare Trousers (₤ 60) are the hero product, with their flared cut and brilliant colour. The gold Flower Pendant Earrings (₤ 16) and the open-toe Metallic Snake Sandals (₤ 46) from the new collection connected the entire look together for a beautifully 70s aesthetic.Shop the Look:

Design Notes: If Cher Horowitz were to create a summer season appearance, it would be this green and orange two-piece set from the brand-new collection. And it would be extremely apt, as late- 90s and Y2K fashion is back in a huge method. The sheer, pastel-green, checkered t-shirt layered over a knitted tank is a nod to this preppy yet lively visual. “Okay, yes, its a short-short skirt, however the elasticated waist sits loosely on the hips, it does not stick and it is (luckily) lined. The shirts loose cut feels breathable and I enjoy that the sheer material lets you see whats below, be it a bra, swimsuit or a white tank like Ive gone with here,” states Rebecca.The Strappy Heeled Kitten Heels (₤ 36) are virtually requiring a vintage card because, wow! They introduce a dash of colour to the whole clothing, contrasting magnificently with pastel hues.Shop the Look:
