RISTYLE Scoop up some sherbet shades Last season, we extolled neutral shades, but this spring we’re stepping out into the sun with a rainbow’s worth of colorful wardrobe choices. Louis Vuitton and Marni gave us collections full of delicious sherbet colors, and local boutiques are offering a similarly eye-popping selection. These juicy shades aren’t reserved for country clubs and cruise vacations anymore — we found everything from pantsuits and cocktail dresses to sports wear and weekend attire in watermelon pink, tangerine orange, pineapple yellow, kiwi green, and cotton-candy blue. Try on Arc and Co.’s daring red scalloped shorts with gold beading ($54) at Queen of Hearts on Westminster Street, or choose from the store’s primary-tinted socks and bangles if you prefer your color in bursts. Berks, up on Thayer Street, carries candy-colored flats and heels ($20 and up), sure to make your mouth water at manageable prices. -marie-louise winther WHERE TO SHOP Queen of Hearts, 222 Westminster Street, Providence 401.421.1471; queenofheartsandmodernlove.com Berks, 278 Thayer Street, Providence 401.831.0174; berkstore.com
