Have you guys ever tried out the monochromatic look, intentionally or not? I’m linking up with my girlfriend Becky over at Mommy in Heels for the What She Wears link-up and this month they chose to have everyone style a monochromatic look. For some reason I had the hardest time putting this look together. I initially came out wearing all blush pink to which my husband remarked, “that’s a lot of pink”. Since I was already questioning the outfit in the first place, I took that as my cue to head back to my closet. It turns out that grey is a very popular color in my wardrobe (which I think I already knew), but I don’t typically wear it paired together because it can feel a bit too dull. In the end, I ended up trying out two different grey outfits. I’m not sure I would have put either of them together had it not been for this link-up, but I appreciate being pushed out of my comfort zone every now and then. Have a look and let me know which outfit you like the best, #1 or #2?
Details: JCrew coat / LOFT sweater / LOFT pants / Monrow tank / Kate Spade bag (similar) / DV by Dolce Vita booties (similar) / Baublebar necklace (similar)
Details: Boden sweater (similar) / LOFT pants / Monrow tank / JCrew belt (old) / JCrew Factory necklace / Madewell tote / Blackstone boots
So what do you think? Have you ever or would you ever try a monochromatic look? I’m certainly going to keep it in mind moving forward!

Love #1
Agreed! #1 is #1!
#1 for sure!
Both are cute, but #1 really caught my eye! :)
I cannot decide, 2 looks so fun, so both.
I LOVE both of these all gray look on you! I also have no idea how to spell gray/grey as well. Yikes.
Love them both but #1 is my favorite. Love the texture in that sweater against your necklace.
I’m partial to the ‘e’ version myself, but I am truly partial to the colour. You look fabulous. Grey is a wonderful colour to mix with. and it has amazing nuance – there is always another colour to it. Love it!! Thanks for sharing.
Definitely the 1st! You are just beautiful! Love the outfit!
I like the first one. I love how you put all the pieces together. Every pieces stand out but doesn’t overpower the other.
For the second outfit, I specifically love the pop-up of the deep orange/brownish color.

You so totally got it!! I won’t lie… I’m loving both outfits and I love the lighter gray paired with the darker gray/charcoal skinnies. You look fabulous!
You were my pick for the link up. I LOVE both outfits. Especially the boots and bag in #2. So something I would wear!!
