Black Grey
Over the past three to four seasons we have seen an increase of grey fashions entering our high streets. Do you embrace these fashions or shy away and stick with your trusty black? Grey is so much more flattering for all us, so why not read on to find out how to wear it.
Through my work as an Image Consultant, I often hear women saying "I always buy black because it is safe and goes with everything" or "I like the look of the greys in the shops but don't know if it suits me or how to wear it".
Well, I can tell you that none of us women need to be frightened of wearing grey. There is a shade of grey which will flatter us all ranging from stunning icy grey, to beautiful silvery soft dove and on to dramatic steely grey.
Grey is a fantastic backdrop for this season's colours from purple to red. Because grey is a colour which is not as harsh as black, it will provide a softer, more flattering look for us.
If you have Blonde hair, pale skin and light eyes, you will look best in the paler shades of grey. Shades such as light grey, dove or pewter teamed with violets, aquas or pinks, will look stunning.
Those of us with dark hair, dark eyes should select charcoal grey. The deep and rich characteristics of this shade of grey are fantastic mixed with this season's pure purple or reds.
Red heads will find their medium to charcoal greys work best when combined with the striking rust and terracotta must have seasonal colours.
All shades of grey are a must for those with grey, silvery or ash toned hair. Mixed with bright purples, reds, aqua blues or pinks will give you your most stunning use of grey.
If you have dark hair and bright eyes, your look is very clear. Therefore you need to combine your grey with a lighter or brighter colour. Try charcoal grey with bright red or a deep purple with light grey.
For those with a softer look, avoid using your grey in contrast with brighter shades. Instead, your best look will be to select pewter with a soft purple or muted red.
As a perfect neutral colour, grey is fantastic for shoes and handbags. Try a patent grey handbag or pair of shoes to see you through this season.
