Social media and its assorted style-sharing set online routinely point to new 'it' hues. The latest shade to fall into fashionable favour? Butter yellow. From runway collections to red-carpet sightings on celebrities such as Emma Stone, to street-style stars, the warm-and-sunny hue has been spotted everywhere this season. And it shows no signs of slowing down.
A softer take in contrast to the fully saturated sunshine colour, butter yellow (also known as buttercream) is a pretty, playful pastel that works surprisingly well with a wide variety of other hues. From bedsheets to heeled sandals, here are five butter yellow fashion finds we're loving right now:
Silk & Snow Flax Linen Bed Sheets
Sweet dreams are made of buttercream thanks to a new bed linen launch from Silk & Snow. The Canadian brand recently introduced a new hue addition to its popular Flax Linen collection. The deliciously milky shade of yellow, called buttercream, is available in top sheets, fitted sheets, pillow shams and more. Or, bundle the dreamy yellow bed linens for a combined savings.

Lululemon 2-in-1 Maxi Dress
We love a butter yellow maxi-dress, especially when said style offers two-in-one functionality. This strapless style from Vancouver-headquartered brand Lululemon can be worn as a dress or folded down to become a wide-waistband maxi-skirt. The flowy fit and the multi-functionality make this piece a must-have for spring and summer packing lists.

Sunday Best Renoir Top
A ruched top — whether sleeved or sleeveless — is a must-try style this spring. We love how this Sunday Best Renoir Top from Vancouver-headquartered fashion brand Aritzia keeps it simple, with a straight-fit, boat neck neckline and 100 per cent Supima cotton material. Available in a selection of shades, we're (perhaps predictably) most enamoured with this punchy yellow option called Lemonade.

Aldo Hazy Sandals
A simple way to add butter yellow to all your spring and summer outfits is with a pair of shoes. These Hazy-heeled sandals from the Montreal-headquartered brand Aldo feature a wonderfully walkable block heel measuring a perfect 1.75 inches, along with an oh-so on trend thong sandal style. Add in the chic squared-toe footbed and you've got a spring sandal that's ready to be worn on repeat.
