A little grey to go with your style…
Since beginning my journey as a Personal Stylist, I have realized that the world has lost the understanding between fashion and style. I blame it mostly on the amazing low prices from big department stores that surround us everyday, the fast fashion industry and how social media can reach anyone, anywhere in the planet, sometimes changing the perspective of certain things. We wear clothes everyday; it doesn’t matter if it’s to stay home, to go to work, or a special event. There is always an intention or purpose in the way you dress: you want to feel good, and you want to be yourself while doing so.
Fashion is the fantastic shows we see on the runways or trends that come and go each season of the year. Fashion is the clothing, itself. Style, on the other hand, is a little piece of yourself, expressed through that clothing. Style is the reason why you dress a certain way – it’s why we all have our favorite colors, cuts, patterns, and looks or trends. We like these things for a specific reason. What you chose to wear, and how you chose to wear it is a reflection of your personality, mood and style. One of my favorite quotes is from Yves Saint Laurent that says, “Fashions fade, style is eternal.” I love to encourage my clients to think about this empowering quote. It captures the true fact that fashions are seasonal, style, is you – everyday.
In our first “What to Wear Wednesday,” allow us to introduce you to Grey, the new black… Ok, so maybe not. Black will always be the new black, but we would encourage you to introduce some classic grey tones into the mix!
Black is typically the chosen one or the “go to” color when we are in doubt about what to wear. You know – that black blazer, your favorite black T, or that little black dress that looks amazing, no matter what. But, have you ever thought about grey? It looks absolutely great with everything and just like black, is a perfect neutral color with endless versatility. Give it a try – you could go all grey or mix with bold colors, creating a great look not only for fall, but for all four seasons.
