One of the most efficient and effective ways to put a classy outfit together
and to make the most of your wardrobe is to know the perfect colour pairings.
When you know which colours work really well with other colours
then getting dressed just becomes so much easier.
Just recently I did a video all about the colour camel and the colour
combinations that work really well with that colour.
You seemed to like that style of video so I thought I'd do
a series on different colours and the colour combinations that work well with
each of those colours. In today's video I'm going to focus on
the colour grey. Now grey can sometimes seem a little bit
of a depressing colour but there's lots of sophisticated ways
that grey can be worn. So let's get into it. In my opinion one
of the most elegant ways to wear grey is to pair it with white. It looks
fantastic together. This is quite a classic look with white
jeans, a grey top and a grey coat. It's quite a spring look I would say but
could be worn in the colder months too just by wearing a thicker jumper
and a thicker wool coat. And another way to add to that would be to add a white
bag or by wearing a biker style jacket and grey bag.
Slightly easier to wear maybe would be grey trousers with a white top
and a white coat or a variation on that would be to wear grey bottoms,
sweater and coat and layer a white shirt underneath.
A very simple way to wear the colour combo is to wear all grey
but add some bright white trainers or some other kind of white shoes.
The colour combination looks crisp, fresh and clean.
Just piece together what you have in white and grey.
I challenged myself to see what I could put together with what's already in my
wardrobe in white and grey and I put these two outfits together.
These are all old pieces and not combinations I always wear but they do
work. Now a way to make this colour pairing
work a little bit more for winter is to add in some black.
So white, grey and black. It looks terrific together.
Just like before you could wear white or grey bottoms
with either white or grey on top and then pair a black bag
to the grey and white outfit and maybe some black shoes.
It doesn't have to be trousers, you could try the colour combination with a skirt
of any kind and then put it together with a shirt and a sweater.
Whichever way you decide to mix it around the black, white and grey colour
combo can look great. See what you have and what you can put
it together with. This is what I put together with my black and white grey
pieces. Sticking with white and grey a colour
that you can add to this which really looks wonderful
is blue. Either a very pale blue or navy looks wonderful as well.
So you could still wear white bottoms and a grey coat and then just add a blue
denim or a chambray style shirt or rather than
white jeans wear a slightly darker grey pant
and a blue shirt. In this image you can see just how these colours all work
together. You could layer this perhaps with a white
coat and it would look really nice together.
If you have a blue coat or a blazer a way to wear it would be with
a grey or white top or grey and white bottoms
and add a blue bag which matches the coat.
Perhaps the easiest way to make this three-way combo work
is to wear grey with some light blue jeans,
a white top and grey blazer or coat and a print would look absolutely fine as
well. As well as a lighter blue navy looks
wonderful with grey and white. Like with all the combinations there's
ways to mix it around. An outfit like either of these you could
just simply add a white bag or a white coat too. Another way you can
do it is layer a look with a white top underneath a grey sweater
and navy blazer and wear some white shoes
or white jeans or trousers with a grey sweater and navy blazer.
This look I've tried myself with all the things I already have in my wardrobe.
A variation on this is to swap the white for black so
black, navy and grey. It works surprisingly well together.
So you could try navy bottoms, grey top and black jacket
or black bottoms, grey top and navy jacket.
I tried the latter. This is another colour combo I don't usually wear so it's
giving me a whole new outfit. If you don't have this combination you
could also try navy bottoms, black top and a grey coat. Now a colour
combination that may not instantly spring to mind
is grey and orange. Yeah it really can work together
and it's a great way to brighten up a winter outfit. Up until now the colour
combinations have been quite safe. This one though is for those
who may be a little bit more adventurous as it's quite eye-catching. You could do
it simply by adding an orange scarf to a grey
outfit or even an orange bag or maybe even both.
You could try wearing an orange top with grey bottoms
or by wearing a grey dress and adding some orange accessories
like a bag and an orange necklace maybe. The reverse look though
is not for those who don't like drawing attention to themselves
as it's very eye-catching. I love it. I also love the similar look with orange
trousers and grey coat. This colour combination of orange and grey
is perhaps the hardest to do with things you might already own as not
everyone has something orange in their wardrobe.
But maybe it's something you could try by adding some orange pieces to your
wardrobe. Something simple like an orange bag can
look great with the grey outfit but it'll also look great with other
colours too. Just like grey and orange together, grey
and red with white also work like a dream together.
Mix in some black with that and it works wonderful.
Maybe you have a black biker jacket which could be worn with a red sweater
layered over a white shirt with grey trousers
or you may have a grey blazer that you can wear with black jeans
and a white sweater and red bag or you could try white bottoms, grey top,
black coat and red bag or even try mixing in a print with that.
Raise your wardrobes and see what you can come up with.
In my video all about the colour camel, I mentioned the colour pairing
of camel and grey. It's a very nice pairing
and it can look very classy. A nice way to wear this duo
is with a dress and coat, either grey dress and camel coat
or a camel or beige colour dress and grey coat.
Rather than a dress you could wear trousers and a top in one colour
and wear a coat in another. Now if camel doesn't suit you, you could try grey and
brown. It's another great colour combination.
It really looks good together. Burgundy, black and grey look terrific
together, particularly a darker grey. Options for this could be a grey jumper
with a burgundy coat and black trousers or add camel into the mix. So camel, grey
and black and wear a burgundy bag. Now pink and grey look very feminine
together, especially if you add in some white.
Maybe you have a pink scarf you can wear with a white jacket and a grey top
or perhaps you have a pink knit that could be worn with a white coat
and put that together with some grey jeans and a grey bag.
If you have a pink coat that would go great with grey trousers
and a white shirt and this is a colour combination that could be worn more
casually or dressed up but whichever way you
wear it, this colour combination looks lovely
together. So I've got a little challenge for you, let's call it the grey challenge.
The challenge is to go through your wardrobe, see what you've got in the
colour grey and see how many outfits that you can
put together based on the colour combinations that I've showed
in this video. Tag me on Instagram and I'll share and repost all your outfits.
