Shades of grey

Grey is often thought of as a bit boring but I love it. It is a great neutral alternative to black and this season all shades of grey will be right on trend. Grey is a great way to show of interesting shapes and features of an outfit. Create an interesting look by using a variety of textures and shades or grey for a subtle look or mixing grey with brights for an eye catching look. Grey also looks great when layered with black.
