[...] is a fabric, and a colour at that, but its ubiquity has made it a neutral in the modern wardrobe. Silver grey is a new neutral in my wardrobe and I’m enjoying its soft and pretty possibilities for Spring and [...]

The problem with this color when it is worn up next to the skin is that you can see any sweat right away. So maybe this color works better out an outwear piece. I think there is a big difference between the darker color (on the vest) and the lighter ones. I have a spring coat in that color (it has the blue-ish cast) it looks great with everything.

I don’t know… this color just doesn’t look good on me. Maybe I’ll try it paired with a bright hue and it’ll work. But usually it just washes me out. Even my husband (who is usually very complimentary) has told me that this color does “nothing” for me.

What a coincidence! I just found a little light gray A-line skirt on the clearance rack at BR and I love it, especially now that the sun has finally returned! I wore it this week with a bright blue cardi and felt so spring-y.

Thanks Joy. I briefly saw that Target had a lot of nice scarfs this season. I will need to go back to get a closer look.

Eva, I got my scarf at Macy’s 4-5 years ago. It’s made of a sheer solid color light gray material with a 1-2 inch border that has some sheen to it. They probably don’t sell it anymore because it has been several years, but it is very simple in design so you could probably find something similar pretty easily.

Love silver and grey… AWAY from my face! I have shoes, jeans and a handbag this color but try as I might this color does not work against my face no matter what I pair it with. I have to resist buying this because I do love it.

Love this!! I’ve been drawn to the silver gray/bright yellow combo for quite some time…now I need to get me something with those colors!

I wore a lot of grey in college and this past year have started wearing it again. I do agree that it’s versatile, but honestly, I’m a bit sick of it. Perhaps it’s living in the northwest – the color grey in general can wear on one’s nerves during “the dark months.” I do like the pictures with yellow, so perhaps I just need to throw in more color.

I love love love gray and yellow; this has been a combo of mine for a long time. Gray and white also rock my world. I pretty much like gray and anything.
