But for this year, we say you should choose pink instead as it is the hottest colour for this spring summer. Who say you can’t look chic and festive at the same time? Dress in pink not only is fashionable, it also brings you a more youthful look. If wearing pink is too overwhelming for you, you can always accessorize with a belt or shoes in pink instead.
Aside from wearing bright colours, a gorgeous floral print can also bring some festive flair to your Chinese New Year fashion. Embrace the trend and go for a bright floral dress.
