OOTW: who said beige is boring, anyway?
Yeah… that would be me. Whoops. Mind you, beige can be boring. It is entirely possible to make neutrals boring – beige by no means has the exclusive on that, you can also do it with black, navy and grey.
I used to think people who wear beige are no fun. What I have realized however is that beige actually enables you to have more fun! Quirky accessories, loud patterns, bright colors? Pair them with beige, and you are toning them down just enough to make them oh, so wearable!
For instance, I tend not to wear gold jewelry much. Next to my olive skin it feels too… kitsch. But pair a couple of gold pieces (even something quirky like these owl earrings) with beige, and – surprise! – the effect is nicely understated (and yet, not boring!)
Lesson learned. So much so in fact, that I have already indulged in a little more non-boring beige.
How about you? What’s your take on this neutral shade?
