Neutrals are versatile, grounding, and widely available. There are warm, cool, light, dark, and mid-tone neutrals, so take your pick. Remix two of many neutrals in one outfit. Remix warm and cool neutrals in an outfit too. Create high or low contrasts with neutrals to suit your mood.
Onto some outfit inspiration. Earth tones like browns, tans, and olives form part of the neutral palette.
1. Olive, Cream and Chocolate
A pair of wide, pleated chocolate pants is paired with a cream tucked knitted top. Brown pointy toe pumps continue the long line of brown. A cropped olive trench coat tops the lot. You could add a solid brown or cream belt, or wear an untucked top with no belt. Cream shoes can work well too. Add a bag that works with the palette.
2. Browns, Greys and Black
This outfit combines six neutrals. Two polo collar sweaters in different shades of grey are layered on top of one another. The short sleeved polo sweater is layered under the long sleeved polo sweater. Both are tucked into a skirt in a cool shade of brown. A warm cognac jacket tops the combination. Dark grey socks that match the sweater are worn with taupe pumps. A black belt is worn over the skirt and matches the black bag.
3. Browns, Black and White
An untucked white shirt is worn over a pair of wide chocolate trousers at a puddle length. A tailored black waistcoat is layerrd over the pairing. Black loafers match the black waistcoat. A cognac bag complements the brown bottoms.
4. Denim, Navy, Cognac, and Cream
Last, some blue for Team Blue. Jeans are combined with a navy semi-tucked sweater. A tan trench coat creates a high contrast with the blues. A cognac belt and bag add an earthy warm touch. Cream sneakers add a crisp integrity, while their gum soles work with the browns in the outfit. Add jewellery, watch, and eyewear as desired.
