When I dress in neutrals, I often go all out—all-black, head-to-toe army green, draped in beige—for the simple reason that I love a monochrome look. It makes a statement, without looking too over-the-top. For this outfit, I took the opposite approach to create a similar effect, mixing a variety of neutrals with gray boots, a black bag, army-green coat, and beige skirt. The combination of so many subdued colors is eye-catching (you almost look color-blocked), but still subtle enough that details, like the playful lace pattern in this romantic top, don't go unnoticed.
