Take the cue from the Natives!
Flaming red, fluorescent pink, bright orange, neon colours are all the rage this summer. So I took a visit to Kenya to see for myself the true colours of the natives - the Samburu and Maasai tribes. They dwell in cow dung huts and lead a nomadic lifestyle. Yet they decorate themselves with elaborate hand-made jewellery and colourful fabrics to show off their nack for mixing brilliant colours. Against a backdrop of a vast dusty arid landscape, where wild animals in their natural shades of browns, black and white and grey (the likes of lions, zebras and hyenas) roam freely, the tribal people mimmic their clashing colours with those of native birds found in their land. Clashing contrasts work well together.
