Lorraine Kelly has made a strong case for swapping blush pinks for something much brighter this summer. Seen at Wimbledon yesterday, she chose a vibrant pomegranate-hued dress from Phase Eight, creating an uplifting event-ready look.

Whilst soft blush tones have been a notable part of the spring/summer fashion colour trends for 2026, richer, punchier shades of pink are an eye-catching alternative. Pomegranate pink feels so mood-boosting, making it a great tone to embrace if you're wondering what to wear to a wedding – especially when it's styled with gold accessories.

Lorraine's Wimbledon attire included the Carey dress from Phase Eight, teamed with a pair of luxurious gold-strap heeled espadrilles from Office. She completed the look with a small shoulder bag featuring brown leather and canvas from Italian brand Neo 87100.

There's something undeniably uplifting about pomegranate pink. It's much more pigmented than lighter hues, yet it feels just as wearable. And whilst it's a great shade for the best summer dresses, this vibrant colour isn't exclusive to warm-weather frocks. Your best trouser suits in this shade can be a stylish addition to your occasionwear, and you could wear each item separately too to liven up neutral basics.

Lorraine's dress is a particularly flattering choice; the waist-cinching belt creates a defined silhouette, and the short puffed sleeves balance out proportions, too. Plus, you could dress it down effortlessly with your most comfortable sandals.

The Phase Eight Carey dress must be a favourite of hers, and she was spotted in the exact pink dress in May whilst presenting her show. We also noted she was wearing the Carey dress in an orange version back in 2024, too.

It's not the first time Lorraine has worn both her gold espadrilles and this practical shoulder bag, either. Last week, she attended Wimbledon in a Karen Millen shirt dress and wore the same accessories. We love to see her re-wearing her wardrobe items, and this is a great reminder that investing in versatile accessories that you love makes getting dressed so much easier – especially when you have a busy social calendar.
