I used to think that monochrome outfits were NOT for me, but the more I wear them, the more they grow on me! I feel like they just make such a statement, and this way you can mix and match so many pieces in your wardrobe! In the blog post, I’ll be sharing some key information that you need to style the perfect white monochrome outfit!

What Actually is Monochrome?

In the fashion world, monochrome means styling an outfit in varying tones of only ONE color. Seems kind of crazy to walk out of the house wearing ALL red, or ALL purple, right?? Monochrome is so cool because you can mix and match different shades of one color and put together a super trendy outfit!

White Monochrome for the Winter

Wearing white in winter can go both ways.. but I’m all for it! I love a nice bright white statement outfit, and a monochrome version is the way to go. In these photos, I paired a white turtleneck with a blazer dress. If I’m wearing a dress in the winter, I need to cover up my neck… it’s one or the other for me! Along with that, stockings are the best way to add another shade of whatever color you are going for. These polka dot stockings add a pattern which elevates the look and brings it all together! Lastly, go for a bold shoe. I’m wearing the INEZ Portia Pump in the color Chalk Nappa! These shoes are ridiculously comfy and they add such class to the outfit 😉 P.S. use code MEGHA15 for 15% off  anything you love on the INEZ site!

Tips on How to Achieve Monochrome Looks

For starters, I personally think that having good staple pieces in your closet helps. I am very minimal and I love my solids outfits. Don’t get me wrong, you will often see me wearing prints. However, day to day, I’m usually in solid outfits because I find that they are very easy to mix and match with everything. In general, I would recommend getting some basics and filling your wardrobe up with pieces that can go with multiple different styles. Over time, you will be able to start mixing and matching different tones to achieve the cutest monochromatic looks! Speaking of staple pieces, this white turtle neck has been with me for years and I’ve worn it so many different ways. Check out my blog post on One Turtleneck Styled in Three Ways!

Stack up on the Jewelry

One of the EASIEST way to hype up a monochrome outfit is by wearing some solid pieces of jewelry! If you have been following me for a while, I’m sure you know I love my dainty chains and necklaces, and I love to wear multiple at a time! I am a fan of both gold and silver, so I wear what I think looks best with the outfit. With an all white look, I decided to go with gold so the silver doesn’t get lost within. One of my favorite jewelry brands is SIXTY STAX, so be sure to check them out and use code MEGHA15 for 15% off the site!
