  8. Congrats Meg! Monochrome has been everywhere the past few seasons. I love the Narciso Rodriguez pre-fall look, it is so simple and structured, but not rigid. The green Valentino couture look is absolutely breathtaking, as is the TSE pre-fall look, which reminds me of a high fashion nun lol. Christian Dior has done some amazing monochromes this season too!

  20. i never truly wear all one color,except for grey, for fear of looking too dark or on the other end of the spectrum like a piece of fruit ;)

  23. I am a fan of items without patterns. I guess I just go for the classic look and for the most part feel that this is achived with simple fashion, rather than busy patterns. I like these items =)
