Not Butter Yellow—This Spring Colour Trend Will Be Everywhere In 2026

By Kevin Harson1 February 2026

I have a bad habit of defaulting to black and white whenever I’m short on styling time in the morning—which, unfortunately, is most days. Throughout winter, I can usually get away with this predictable palette; the moody pairing feels right at home against darker skies and heavier layers. But now that spring is finally finding its feet, I’m craving something fresher.

This week, Victoria Beckham delivered exactly the styling inspiration I’ve been waiting for, stepping out in a colour combination I’ll be recreating at the very next opportunity. Anchoring her look with an oversized suit in the prettiest shade of pale blue, she championed what’s fast becoming one of the season’s most important hues. Soft yet striking, this delicate blue has already made waves on the Spring/Summer 2026 runways at Victoria Beckham, Simone Rocha and Tibi, where it brought a youthful, optimistic energy to tailored silhouettes and fluid separates alike.

Rather than keeping things overly light, Beckham grounded the look with a rich burgundy bag—adding instant depth and dimension. Light enough for brighter days, yet anchored by a darker note that still works when the temperature dips—a wearable palette that transcends seasons and feels far more elevated than a head-to-toe pastel moment.
