The beginning of December brings the peak of runway fashion hitting the streets.  When you’re choosing which layers to include, be sure to consider one of this winter’s biggest trends: marshmallow colors.  Moving away from the intensity of summer shades, designers brought out the pastels: pale pink, powder blue, mint green, lavender and creamy yellow.  From daytime to date night, classroom to coffee shop, here are five pieces to include in your winter wardrobe.

Pink

Candyfloss' pink hue is soft enough that you can experiment freely with fun textures and cuts, like the cropped, heavy-knit Club Monaco sweater shown below.  This shade works best with light, cool undertones and looks great on women of all shades.

Blue

Powder blue offers a bit more wiggle-room for how formal you can get.  Plus, this pretty shade is universally flattering, which makes it a great entrance-level pastel.

Green

Popular greens this season range from a fresh mint to a muted pistachio color.  If you’re choosing one of the brighter colors, like the sweaters shown here, pair with neutral bottoms and accessories to prevent from overwhelming your look. 

Purple

This season’s purples also bring a range of intensity.  Delicate sweaters with barely-there color, like the Joie pullover, demand to be the backdrop for bold statement jewelry.

Yellow

This cheerful shade plays a bit more casually while brightening up any overcast winter day.  Pair with dark jeans to avoid invoking the long-gone summer, or with black pants to create a more striking look.
