If you’ve been working hard to fight that caffeine addiction, throwing yourself into the coffee-coloured nude trends for Spring/Summer may just be the healthiest way of getting your favourite naughty-but-nice beverage back into your life.

Gorgeously rich nude hues dominated much of the SS09 catwalks, with colours varying from pale wine shades to milky latte options as seen at Bottega Veneta (pictured).
