How to wear Grey, Charcoal & Smoke

Generally, it’s safe to wear standard grey with any other color along with its monochromatic shades. Grey color is like black and white—a wardrobe staple that never goes out of season. A neutral color, grey can almost be worn with every shade.

Add a spark of charcoal to your wardrobe with everyday pieces that are seriously smoking. Here are somet muted monochrome looks. As with any monochromatic outfit, the key is to layer different shades of grey to keep the eyes moving.

The tone-on-tone look

Tone-on-tone dressing is a simple way to work the latest color trends into your wardrobe. Not only is green huge this season, but because of the variety found in this hue, green can make for some incredibly striking monochromatic looks.

 
The Cab Look

The tints and shades run the entire spectrum of blue and yellow. Taking advantage of this wide range not only adds depth, but helps you avoid the Green Giant effect. Bright kelly green and chartreuse are great for one element of your look, but they need to be tempered by forest, mint or deep emerald.

Khaki greens send a relaxed weekend vibe, especially when combined with greens that veer toward olive and grey. White, black and grey can be useful accents too. Most importantly, remember to keep a face-flattering green up top. Intense lime or neon greens can be tough for a lot of women, but are perfect for a skinny belt or a clutch.
