How Pastels Became Spring's Most Surprisingly Cool Trend

From: W Magazine

Pastels have a reputation for being dainty and ultra-girly—and at times, a snooze-worthy standard option for spring. But when styled right, with a bit of edge to offset the saccharine, they can feel downright modern—and dare we say, cool? Take, for example, Abby Lee Kershaw matching her pale pink hair to a slouchy sweater, or the consummate of cool, Bjork, making the feminine hue all her own.Here, a few images the Warchives, to inspire your Easter look.
