Can some stylish grays and silvers subdue the pink of your cold nose?
Thursday, January 7, 2010
Brrr...it's freezing outdoors -- but the silver lining (if you can call wearing fun down jackets and coats that! ) is the lovely, soft silver and gray palette--so big in winter style this year. Ralph Lauren had introduced the silver look in skiwear several seasons ago. It caught on.
By wearing shades of gray from charcoal to dove gray (sweaters, scarves, leggings, gloves) in combination with glamorous and sporty silver down-- a woman can look extremely modern, sleek and utilitarian all at once. The more texture (from cashmere to chinchilla fur ) the better. Even Uggs come in a silver version. The caveat is to keep the shiny silver item like a down jacket as high-end as possible (no "cheese" please) and keep it to one article of clothig--obviously to avoid the "too much of a good thing" effect.
Grey and its shiny version-silver, is an ageless color that suits an older man or woman particularly well. Never "harsh" as black can often be next to aging skin. Those with beatiful gray hair have even more incentive to wear the color.
Have you tried it?
