For Monochrome-ing Yourself

Many of you responded excitedly to my last post about this monochromatic trend, so I thought I’d follow it through to the end. Here are a few pieces I found that are a bit more budget-friendly. I loved the grey-toned Atsushi Nakashima dress from last post so when I saw this Eva Franco design on Modcloth, I immediately began thinking of how I’d DIY it (only a bit) to mock the awesome tucked-in-center pattern from the runway. As for the Antonio Berardi outfit, I was super attracted to that ultra-structured, simple longline vest. I have been searching for the perfect doppelgänger for this and the closest I’ve come is this gorgeous Jeremy Laing vest. The Alexis Mabille dress is just such THE classy, button-down shirtdress. I found this really gorgeous Steffen Schraut dress on La Garçonne and noticed it had the slightly-pleated waist like the Alexis Mabille one. Which is your favorite? How else are you incorporating the monochrome trend into your wardrobe?
