MONOCHROMATIC MAGIC


Tired of too many color combinations within one look? Sometimes it is difficult to mix and match garments to make a complete outfit. Or want to look taller, but can’t wear high heels? Here’s the trick to break this confusion by going monochromatic.
While there's no arguing that color-block ensembles are here to stay and that the pretty sherbet hues are making their way, let me assure you those aren't the only must-try color trends at their tipping point this season!

Monochromatic color scheme consists of one color within an outfit (same color top and bottom for instance) with varying shades and intensities. This scheme works well professionally and socially. It creates an illusion of being taller and sleeker.

Choose the color that suits you the best. Could be a neutral shade, a pink, a blue or any other vibrant color! Every color has a variety of shades, so make the best use of them. Using a combination of various design elements and different fabrics of the same color will create a harmonious outfit. This can be clubbed with accent accessories to add a pop of second color to complete the look depicting your personal style and mood. You can invest in different accessories such as scarves, neckpieces, belts, clutches, shoes… And if you are not an accessory-person, try the dramatic eye makeup with bold shades or vibrant lip colors to enhance your appearance and make it look chic, trendy yet very elegant.

While adventurous dressers will surely gravitate towards brighter interpretations of monochromatic dressing, it's important to note that neutral versions of this one-color look leave an equally memorable impression.

This blue expresses a very stable mood. Blue is the monochromatic color in this case with an additional shade of gold adding bling to this casual attire. You can wear this informally for occasions where the message communicated needs to be relaxed and slightly dressy at the same time.



 

Also, if you don’t like to follow the fashion trends that change with time, the monochromatic look may be perfect for you. You would get to wear your clothes year after year without having to worry about buying new clothes every season. Just invest in new separates and you will be set to rock any event. At a glance it may appear not so interesting to you, but you would surely get to dress aesthetically with this attempt. Go out and try some monochromatic looks as they are easy to plan and experiment with!
