Need to liven up your winter wardrobe? Reach for flavours of mint, pistachio or strawberry
This story is part of the June 15 edition of Sunday Life. See all 15 stories. While florals for spring generally elicit a withering response of 'groundbreaking' – said in our best Miranda Priestly tone – pastel colours in winter are surprisingly, well, surprising. The spring/summer '25 European catwalks were awash with tones of pistachio (Chloe), fairy floss (Alaia), limoncello and grapefruit (Chanel), and ice-blue (Acne Studios). Meanwhile, at last month's Australian Fashion Week, local designers were also championing the 'soft' end of the colour wheel: Bianca Spender showed the versatility of pale yellow in bomber jackets and sheer leggings layered under dresses, while at Carla Zampatti, mint mingled with the palest of turquoises in a masterclass in black-tie dressing that was anything but drab. But before you think these scoops need saving for spring, pastels make a perfect pairing for some of this winter's warmest shades, including burgundy, which is instantly cooled down with a splash of peony pink, lemon or sky blue. Because pastels are inherently cool tones, they also tie back well with other warm shades such as chocolate, khaki and even some shades of red (think cherry, not brick). Though do try to avoid too much black with pastels - the contrast can be too jarring. That said, if you are a devotee of the monochromatic look and are keen for a pastel pop, make like Charlotte York-Goldenblatt and opt for a hair bow or headband from Versace or Valentino in an uber-femme shade of baby pink or blue. And, if you're like fellow And Just Like That character Seema Patel, who's encouraged by a matchmaker to wear pastels to attract a male suitor, and you're experimenting with a softer palette, ditch the twin-sets and pearls and instead opt for a tailored long-line vest or wide-legged trouser; more angular silhouettes will offset any overt 'girlishness' in the colour of the fabric. Accessorising with metallic belts and oversized, chunky necklaces also adds a degree of toughness. Finally, nails are also another low-cost, high-impact way to work pastels into your look. A gel manicure in a shade of lavender, peach or duck-egg blue -- or all three if you feel inclined -- will also make the skin on your hands appear more tanned, even if the closest you got to Capri this Euro-summer is imagining yourself there. Did someone say sorbetti?

This coastal gem just became Western Australia's most-liked destination ever
Western Australia is a wild and wonderful part of our Great Southern Land, and a big part of it, for that matter. Covering one-third of our island continent, the state is packed with treasures, from beautiful Broome up north to windswept Albany down south. It's hard to pick favourites, but one lesser-known gem has just broken records, claiming the title of Western Australia's most-liked destination on social media ever (which means a lot in this digital age). In March, a photo of Elephant Rocks went viral, racking up 2.5 million views and more than 100,000 engagements on the official Western Australia Facebook page. The tourism body shared: 'It wasn't just a viral moment – it was a reminder of why this place captures hearts worldwide.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Western Australia (@westernaustralia) Set within William Bay National Park between the towns of Walpole and Denmark (which was recently crowned one of Australia's Top Tourism Towns for 2025) this incredibly special spot is named for its giant granite rocks that look like a herd of elephants waddling through the crystal-clear waters. It's breathtaking beyond belief, and could be a serious contender for the title of Australia's best beach next year. Beyond its viral boulders, Denmark offers plenty of other natural wonders and outdoor adventures for every kind of traveller. You can take a dip at the sheltered Greens Pool (just next door to Elephant Rocks), kayak along the tranquil Denmark River, sip your way through the region's renowned wineries, or hike the Bibbulmun Track, one of the world's great long-distance trails. So long, Euro-summer… here we come, Denmark, WA!
