There was a time when pastels were in vogue, but a zesty effect is the order of the day, so in comes Lemon Drop Yellow. However, Hailey Bieber is the one to provide the tone now by wearing a lemon-yellow combination in Mallorca that left style editors and admirers alike in a citrus euphoria.
This is not the soft butter yellow that there was in early spring. Lemon Drop is stronger, fresher, and is made to make heads turn hot. It has this sun-bathed clarity that works with all kinds of skin tones and has an immediately cooling effect.
Why not Lemon Yellow?
Not only is the color psychology impressive here, but so is its meaning, yellow being the symbol of feeling good, seeing everything clearly, and acting impulsively, and these are precisely the vibes we need in a post-minimalist summer. Moreover, following seasons of neutrals and beiges, the blue is the dopamine color that has introduced an adventurous spirit of optimism into our closets.
Hailey, How to Rock Style:
1. Monochrome It
On the red carpet, Hailey created a Mallorca glamour by wearing all-yellow pieces, which demonstrated that it is not too much to dress head-to-toe, but just the right amount. Go for a lemon blazer-and-shorts, go with a matching halter and flowy trousers, or a matching crop top and mini. offset it with nude heels or white sneakers to give it a clean look.
2. Choose Airy Profiles
Lemon yellow is a fabric that radiates when used in light, airy fabrics such as cotton poplin, linen, or gauzy mesh. Attempt something flaring on one side, a wide-legged trouser, or an oversized shirt dress, which swings with your movements.
3. Gold & Neutrals
Add some fine gold jewelry, nude sandals, and raffia totes. The duo mellows out the appearance and prevents the yellow from being too overwhelming. You want something provocative? A bright chocolate brown lip would look good.
4. Try It on Swimwear or Sets
Bright yellow cover-ups and bikinis are already hitting the trends on vacation TikTok. Combine with slick hair and tortoiseshell glasses to look like an influencer on a beach.
5. Tip your Toes with Accessories
Not done to make the full banana? The trend can be eased through lemon-coloured sunglasses, micro bags, or strappy sandals. The aesthetic can even be alluded to by a yellow French manicure.
Final Take
Lemon Drop Summer is not a trend; it is an attitude. It is not afraid but jovial and outright light-hearted. One bright color is all it takes to add excitement to a whole outfit (and day), as Hailey demonstrated to us.
