‘I’m interested in fashion but I’m always careful about colours, and I find that most of my shirts, jeans and jackets are blue. I need some ideas on other shades that would suit me.’
Pamela McGrady is a retired teacher from Chelmsford, Essex. Age: 89. Height: 5 ft 3 in. Size: 10
SOLUTION
Pam looks great in blue, but we wanted to give her some other options to try. By introducing her to burgundy (a color that pairs wonderfully with blue), we know she can effortlessly add this color to her daily routine.
