How to Wear a Monochrome Outfit

It is not very common for a lover of color to go head to toe in neutrals. But when done right, a monochrome outfit can leave a lasting impression. Here’s the secret “ingredient!”

It’s all about texture. Think about it, blocks and blocks of the same color are uninteresting and predictable. But mixing textures into your monochrome outfit creates an attractive contrast. Today I am practicing what I preach with: lace, ruffles, and gold studs. These design elements work together to form an elegant ensemble.

This two-layer tee is the perfect addition to my not so practical summer wardrobe. It is what I refer to as a “basic with a twist.” When I am not wearing it with shorts, it will look simply chic with ripped denim. The fit is true to size, and it is available in mustard, lavender, and beige (as seen here). Take your pick! The ruffle shorts, on the other hand, are not your average pair of khakis. Instead, they feature a side zip closure, and darling ruffle detail! Act fast for only $45 they are bound to sell out fast.
