9 Outfits That’ll Make You Rethink Neutrals Being “Boring”

We love a good pop of colour every now and then, but—hear us out—all-neutral outfits can be incredibly chic. We also can’t deny how simple they make getting dressed, which is sometimes why colourful dressing is deemed trickier. Sticking to a spectrum of cream, brown and beige means you can mix and match with abandon because all these shades go together seamlessly.

Still, if you’re worried that an absence of vibrant hues will make your minimalist outfits a little lackluster, trust us when we say neutral-toned dressing is anything but boring. It just takes a jolt of inspiration to get the outfits right. Think about layering textures when testing out monochrome dressing, and you’ll stand out but in a subtle way. To prove our point, we rounded up some of our favourite looks from trendsetters who’ve tackled neutrals successfully time and time again.
