Getting late for work/night out? Tired of putting pieces of your wardrobe together? What if someone told you to color coordinate your separates? No, we are not talking about an eight year old’s matchy-matchy outfit, full-growns can rock the monochrome trend too.
Here’s how –
– The idea is to wear a single color head to toe while experimenting with various shades of the same color. For instance, pair whites with creams, navies with sky blues, pinks and blushes.
– Monochrome elongates the body, making the wearer look taller by creating a streamlined figure.
– It lets you create a whole new outfit from the same wardrobe.
– You don’t have to brainstorm your outfit every night in advance. When in a hurry, just color code.
– Pair different fabrics and textures, such as chiffons, leather and jacquards. It doesn’t have to be boring just because it is monochrome.
– If you’re feeling a little too blue (or whatever color you’re wearing) you can wear the accessories in a different color and add contrast to your outfit.
– Pastels for daytime looks and jewel tones for night outs look great.
– If you’re brave enough, you can take the trend to the next level by opting for similar colored nail paints and jewelry.
– Monochrome is super sleek, elegant and understated which makes it appropriate for work too.
Designers dig it and fashionistas swear by it. Go on and embrace this trend while it’s hot.
