The Art Of Contrast

For SS13 monochrome is a massive look. They're my favourite colours, so of course I have to do a post on it. All of my favourite designers are rocking this look on the runway, from Céline to Maison Martin Margiela to Alexander Wang to Marc Jacobs. Below are a handful of my favourite looks from the SS13 RTW runway
Alexander Wang SS13 RTW
Céline SS13 RTW
Chanel SS13 RTW
Masion Martin Margiela SS13 RTW
Marc Jacobs SS13 RTW

I absolutely love the Alexander Wang collection, especially the use of leather panelling and futuristic cut out shapes used. I think leather panelling is going to be massive all year round, wouldn't it be amazing if they invited leather nail acrylics? Below are some accessories and shoes I've pulled together to complete the perfect monochrome look

         
All three bags on the top row are from Zara. Prices from left to right are £49.99, £19.99 and £69.99. All three bags on the bottom row are from Topshop. Prices from left to right are £42.00, £60.00 and £80.00

These fabulous shoes are all from Zara and would finish any monochrome look off perfectly. All are £39.00 each. Bargain


Celebrities currently rocking the monochrome look are Kim Kardashian, Kristen Stewart, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Alba, Michelle Williams, January Jones, Kourtney Kardashian and Beyonce

I think the reason why the monochrome look is so successful each year is because it's simply timeless. There are so many ways in which the look can be worn, any one of any age can pull it off and it's so easy to accessorize. Will you be wearing doing monochrome this season?
