How To Master The Monochrome Look For Fall

We're going classy this year.

POSTED BY JOSEPHINE ALLEN

There's something so classic about a monochromatic outfit. While summer always deserves color and glitter, I find myself wanting something a little more refined as we approach fall this year.

Capes, tweed and matching sets are all on my vision board. Perhaps I'm trying to lean into the Blair Waldorf look, or perhaps I have too many hot pink garments I need to get rid of. I swear by the age-old truth that if your outfit is all one color, you should play around with texture to create visual interest.

After seeing Sarah Ndiaye rock a brown loungewear set, I'm desperate for one too. Not all loungewear looks chic and intentional, so I'm always on the hunt for pieces that do.

This longing for monochrome has me convinced that an influx of brown is coming to my wardrobe soon, because I need more clothing to pair with my favorite brown boots.

If you want to get monochromatic this fall, here are my Fizzypicks.
