On my fortnightly mooch around my local COS store, I was pleasantly surprised. Not that I usually aren’t, as it’s definitely one of my most-loved high street stores, but I was pleased to see so much colour. After all, winter in renowned for favouring darker hues. As I walked around, I saw pops of purple that reminded me of ‘the purple one’ in a box of Quality Street (yes Xmas chocs are firmly on my mind), and then, I spotted a shade I really wasn’t expecting—lime green. Updating everything from cosy knitwear, midi dresses and bucket hats, I have to say, I’m quite the fan. And although I’ve fully embraced pink in all its glory this year, I glided right past these items in favour of the fresh new colours.
