Grey + Mustard

Mustard sofa

Mustard sofa

I do know this is a sofa…it’s just the perfect shade of mustard though, the one I have in mind….

I also worship grey. I can’t think of one colour which would be unsuitable to match to it.

Having made myself clear on this point, just in case you don’t know me and are not aware of this fact, I would like to suggest wearing grey with mustard. I am not fond of yellows, but mustard it’s another matter all together. Not exactly kind on light complexions, but of course, in this case, you can wear it perhaps not too close to your face, or with a grey scarf around your neck.

The other matter is even harder to overcome, it just isn’t a popular colour, so it is quite difficult to find something worth considering buying. But I have searched extensively and I have managed to come up with a few things…(some are a little more expensive than my average but I couldn’t help it, sorry)

 

I do hope you will find this match as interesting as I have.

Short sleeves knit + pussy-bow blouse + trousers

This is me, I was watching a program and I noticed what a great outfit the actress was wearing, again…I just can’t help it I am afraid…

Petrol blue short-sleeve cardigan with a grey blouse and grey classic trousers. Now, perhaps it doesn’t sound terribly exciting said like that, but I can assure you it did look great. It’s obviously more of an “office look” then an everyday “going around town for errands” one, nevertheless, one to bear in mind.

Here what you may use to recreate it (didn’t actually find cardigans with short sleeves I liked but I do like the knits I am about to show you though):

Classic match

I know I shouldn’t be looking at winter clothes yet but I love them so much more than the summer ones….

So, here’s a “match made in heaven”, cashmere cardigan, jeans and loafers, mid-heel loafers!!

Cashmere cardigan + jeans light blue + thin necklace + mid-heel loafers

The cardigan is Massimo Dutti (here). They have a new cashmere collection out with the usual suspects. I am sure you are bound to have a pair of jeans and a necklace similar the ones in the picture. Now, the shoes. I would just about kill to have those Gucci gorgeous loafers, but I can’t… either kill or have them!

Here are a few alternatives:

I really quite like the “The seller” leather pair…
