I love a good shortcut. Especially when it comes to getting dressed, I love it when I can feel pulled together quickly and it’s not a giant chore or force of creativity. Some days it’s just function! I still like to feel elevated even if I only spent 30 seconds choosing out my outfit, though, which is where the power of monochromatic dressing comes in really handy.
Pick a color, any color! Today I chose white because a have a zillion white tops, and I’ve just added a pair of white jeans that I like to my wardrobe. Not only will this outfit take me through a video shoot I have later today, but as I sit here at my desk getting work done, I feel a lot more powerful than if I had simply left on my pajamas.
When going monochromatic, having a few good accessories helps to punctuate the look and add some visual interest. I love this new woven raffia bag. I decided to carry the black into my shoes for some nice contrast. I added a few statement jewelry pieces and that’s it! I will say that having a shorter hair style also makes my outfits feel a little more put together. Add that to the long list of reasons to get a bob!
