On to fashion... one of my favorite looks for this fall and winter are outfits made up of shades of one color. Looking at a magazines last week, I saw a great outfit with different shades of gray from head to toe! Even though the whole outfit was gray, the variety of tones of the color made the outfits look so luxurious and rich!
Try this look out yourself! It is super easy to throw it together with basic pieces you have in your closet. When done in neutral colors like gray, black, and brown- this look is modern and sleek.
The only thing to watch out for? When doing an outfit with shades of black, make sure to use different materials (leather, cotton, silk, etc). If you use similar materials (like only cotton) in shades of black, the outfit can just come off looking faded and old. Whatever color you use though, differing materials are sure to create a nice visual interest and add to the luxe look!
If the solid color outfits are not for you, try "fading" into colors. For example, use blacks with grays, browns with olive greens, camel colors with beige, etc.
Here are a few outfits to show you the potentials of mixing shades this fall and winter! Enjoy!!!

I was just reading an aritcle about this same thing, mixing shaeds of the same. They did not have the pics to go with it. Must admit it would be easy for even me to match and look somewhat modern:) Especially like the tip to mix materials, would never have thought of them looking faded if they were the same. As susal, you are looking good and trying to help us do the same. Always enjoy the blogs!
