Autumnal Greys
Autumnal Greys
This season’s need to know neutral is grey. Grey dominated
fashion week appearing in collections of DKNY, Simon Gao and Altuzarra and in
many cases for designers such as Armani and Ralph Lauren entire collections devoted
to marls and metallics. So wear something grey this season, simply add a dose
of this easy to wear shade into your autumnal wardrobe.
As I walked into H&M yesterday on one of my many
frequent shopping trips, a sea of grey, blacks and khaki colours hit me. For me
a Mohairmix knee length cardigan is my staple grey piece this autumn, however there
are plenty of styles and shades to choose from.
The great thing about grey is that it a versatile shade and
there are plenty of different tones to suit everyone’s complexion. As well as
being a hard-wearing and practical colour, grey suits a range of skin tones
which is great for those with red hair and pale skin as finding the right
colours to match our complexion can often be quite tricky. Grey also complements
a range of other colours, for example it will look good with navy and pastel
colours which can often look odd with black.
The best description for the Grey trend this season is
off-duty chic. It is for me anyway I like the effortlessly stylish look that
this cardigan brings and I am all for the soft and slouchy fashion trend that
has hit the high street.
Whether you adopt the soft and slouchy look, or you go for
sharp tailoring, sports-luxe or feminine, the look will always look understated
and restrained. Try mixing this colour with pale pinks and other pastel
colours, or pair with black like I have done.
