Monochromatic Moment

I’ve been absolutely living in pieces from Darling. As an ambassador, I’ve had the pleasure of investing in a wardrobe from Darling Magazine’s new clothing line, and as I acquire new pieces to build and expand my capsule wardrobe of foundational pieces, I’m having so much fun trying on new looks to express myself. When I saw the aptly named Daydream Blouse and Glide Skirt in the color sable, I imagined bathing myself in warm, silky reds and I knew it was time to try a popular trend I’d been eyeing on Pinterest: the monochromatic look. So, how did I do it? The key is to choose shades with a similar underlying tone, think: ombre effect. As you can see, my outfit subtly gets darker as the eye goes from head to toe, starting with my blouse, on to the skirt, followed by a mahogany handbag, and capping things off with the rich dark brown of my suede boots. If you find a color that you love, especially one that speaks to the season, like rich reds in February, I highly encourage you to try on a monochromatic look for yourself.
