Feeling Gray?

First of all, thank you SO MUCH for all of the awesome comments on my last post. You guys will definitely like next week's edition! I'm so glad you liked it. Today's post will be about one of fall's hottest trends- grey. You all know that grey skinnies are all the rage, but grey clothing is now far from boring, with rich hues like charcoal and arsenic. Grey is sophisticated and classy, but still wearable for everyone. Grey is popping up on all the runways, like

Michael Kors-



3.1 Phillip Lim-



Marc by Marc Jacobs-



Stella McCartney-



and Louis Vuitton-



A monochromatic outfit makes you appear slimmer (always good), so try these pieces for a cool look inspired by the grey trend.

OUTFIT 1-

Start with the Sparkle Striped Boatneck tee from Urban Outfitters.



Put the Topshop Belted Cape Jacket on next. The top will peek out and look really cute.



Pair them with the Lux Acid Wash Jean from Urban Outfitters-



Your shoes will be the Silver Quilted Ballet Flat from Scoop NYC-



Add this cute fedora from Urban-



OUTFIT 2-

Start with the James Perse Heather Casual T from ShopBop. James Perse's tees are so comfortable and soft, and you can layer them with anything.



Layer the Rachel Pally Pocket Shift Dress, also from ShopBop, over that. Don't put the same shades of grey together (well, if they're touching...does that make sense?), try this light gray with a charcoal shade.



Put on the Sparkle and Fade Opaque Tights from Urban Outfitters-



Finish with the Suede Ankle Strap Skimmer from Urban Outfitters-



OUTFIT 3-

Begin with a soft James Perse tank from ShopBop-



Layer on the Lux Basic Long Cardigan from UO-



The Lux Herringbone Tweed Mini is the skirt. Pair it with some gray tights if you wish.



Finish with the Frye 'Anna' Mary Jane Flat from Nordstrom. Mary Janes are huge for fall, try them in patent, leather, or suede. I love this quilted pair.



To spice up your grey outfit, throw in some colorful jewelry (I like turquoise or bright blue with grey) or slip on some metallic silver shoes or accessories. They will pair perfectly with your grey, but will definitely put in an extra touch.

As you can see, this is the most sophisticated shade this fall. Wear it right and you'll be feeling far from gray.
