Set to appear in the July 2014 issue of the publication, the Cosmopolitan Australia 'Perfectly Pastel' editorial is as full of sunlight as it is of pastel hues. It reads, "Give this shade a grown-up twist." It rightly assumes that pastels often have a youthful and pretty appeal. Yet through tailored jackets, sheer fabrics and glamorous dresses, it is hard not to see the outfits as anything but womanly.

The Cosmopolitan Australia 'Perfectly Pastel' editorial stars model Ashley Osborne. The blonde beauty was shot by photographer Nick Scott, who captured her out in the great outdoors. Featuring pieces from the likes of Zimmermann, ASOS and H&M, the outfits were styled by fashion editor Nicole Adolphe. Windswept hair and natural makeup perfect the looks.
