The Colour Palette That Never Misses
Sand & Sea - Nature's Biggest Outfit Inspo
If I had to choose one colour palette to wear for eternity, a desert island pick, it would be stolen straight from my surroundings… sand and sea.
Blue does the grounding, it gives depth and a richness while the sand tones keep things fresh and vibrant. One settles, the other lifts. There’s contrast, but also balance.
Versatility & Range
The beauty of sand and sea tones is in the range of saturations they offer. From the crisp brightness of white linen to the depth of a navy wool sweater. From the dusty softness of pale blue chambray to the richness of camel blazer. You can go warm or cool, light or dark, clean or rugged.
This makes them incredibly easy to wear across seasons, formality levels, and fabrics. Summer cotton suits, winter flannels, chunky knits, lightweight cashmere scarves, all of them sit happily in this palette.
Texture Is Your Friend
With these tones, texture does a lot of the heavy lifting. A navy linen jacket feels very different from a navy merino knit. An ecru cotton trouser is softer and more relaxed than cream cavalry twill. Play with the weaves and weights, hopsack, seersucker, flannel, denim, suede to keep things interesting even when the colours stay simple.
