Today's Style Trend: Monochrome

Monochrome: black, white, and grey... How simple could this trend be? It has always been a huge part of fashion, but we have recently seen it coming into play more. Is this trend considered boring or is it so easy anybody could do it? In our opinion, monochrome is the epitome of an effortless look! Whatever you pair with a black, white, or grey piece instantly goes with it.

Monochrome doesn't always have to be 'boring,' though! You can add statement pieces to make it daring and add a little bit of color:


Or you can keep it simple and look chic and effortless:


This trend has been adopted into the high fashion world by brands such as Alexander Wang, Michael Kors, Jason Wu, and a plethora of other amazing designers.

To achieve the effortless monochrome look doesn't cost much money. You can easily go to a thrift store and find unique pieces, or you can get pieces such as these from retail stores:

This trend is something that is easily achievable, and something everyone can easily pull off. We hope that how we style monochrome will give you inspiration on how to make this basic trend something that catches people's eyes!
