What to wear with a mustard yellow dress

I recently picked up this cute little mustard number from TOPSHOP and I wasn’t sure how to accessorize it. An off the shoulder Frilly dress is kind of my go-to silhouette so I didn’t want to go with obvious accessories to match my somewhat obvious dress choice.

My girlfriend Antonia recently posted on Instagram about how you can use a colour wheel to get colour pairing inspo. And the rule is to choose an adjacent colour to your hero colour or to choose a colour that is opposite your hero colour on the wheel.

Well yellow is opposite purple on the colour wheel so I opted for a lilac block heel to do something a bit out of the ordinary and I accessorized with a beaded tiger cross body bag and wore it as a clutch. The colours in my clutch are adjacent to yellow on the colour wheel.

How did I do? And have you ever used a colour wheel for clothing inspo?
