I love color. In fact, a few years ago, I probably would have looked at you like you were crazy if you asked me to dress in a monochromatic color scheme, but I gave it a try and actually liked it. It was a bit of a challenge to figure out my personal dos and don’ts of wearing monochromatic colors, but I think I’ve finally done just that. This week, I’m going to share three of my tips with you.
Tip #1: Choose a color you are already comfortable with.
If you aren’t comfortable wearing one color from head to toe, don’t start with a color you aren’t comfortable in. It will feel too much like a stretch for you, putting you far outside your comfort zone. Instead, choose a color that you already wear a lot. Then, piece together different shades of that one color. For the first outfit this week, I chose gray. It is a simple color that most people already own, and most people are comfortable in dark colors like black and gray. Here’s what I pieced together:

I wore a light gray sweater and dark gray leggings. I took this picture barefoot, but I would love to see this with a flat, comfortable black shoe. This outfit would be great for a lazy weekend at home. I may get more wear out of it when winter arrives in Chicago.
I’m sure many of you have already worn gray in a monochromatic way, so tell me…
How have you paired different shades of gray in one outfit?
Comfortable and stylish! Nice
That’s the best way to be! haha.
That sweater looks so comfy! and with flats its perfect!
