It's everywhere and if you haven't noticed - you're not paying attention. So listen up.
After some long and hard consideration, I’ve officially embraced the shade once reserved for brunch food. Once overlooked, this soft, creamy hue has stepped into the spotlight—and we have Loewe, Miu Miu, Zimmermann, and Chanel to thank for the revival. While classic yellow can feel loud or tricky to wear, butter yellow is its more refined, wearable cousin—subtle enough for everyday, but never boring.
As for styling? The options are honestly endless. I’m especially drawn to it with chocolate brown (banana jokes aside—it’s a look), ivory, cool grey, or even a touch of blue. It’s one of those shades that feels fresh and surprisingly versatile, no effort required.
Here's how I'd wear it:
