Tranquil Tones

No one wants to look like a Crayola Crayon do they? That might sound odd but wearing multiple garments from the same colour palette can often make one feel that way. We wanted to reveal how tonal dressing can look elegant, understated and achievable by following a few simple steps.

The most important rule to live by is to always wear the lightest colour closest to your body and the darkest outside and then basically layer and mix textures of the same shades and always remember to finish with flattering footwear.

Keep these simple steps in mind and you’ll get it right every time; maximising your wardrobe, re-imagining past season items with a striking, distinguished style. Tonal dressing is a great way to add depth to your outfit and you’ll soon appreciate there’s more than one shade of white and there’s alternatives to ‘all black everything’.

With the AW season just around the corner (sorry but it is), now more than ever is the time to start trialling some tonal, layered outfits. Via different hues, soft prints and texture clashes, wearing one colour head-to-toe can not look too matchy-matchy. Why don’t you try it?
