Neutrals and Monochrome
Have a favorite color and wondering whether it's worthwhile to get it in multiples?
Trying to color block on a day you feel like going a little more under the radar? Then the tips The Spot has to offer this week might be just the thing you've been craving! Take for example the Men's Slim Fit Comfort Stretch Twill Dress Shirt, available from the Vince Camuto line created for Macy's. With its soft dual-tone greys, it's the ideal item for a decisive and demure fashion statement many times over!
A great way to spruce up an ensemble, keeping in line with the concept of a more subtle simplicity, is by going monochromatic!
Pick a color that tickles your fancy and a garment that incorporates multiple shades of that lovely color. Pieces like the Men's Ultimate Slim Fit Non-Iron Performance Stretch Dress Shirt from the Ryan Seacrest collection available at Macy's are a great examples of this! Wear this swirl of blues with your favorite jeans for a dressed up daytime or dark dress pants for a night out looking ever so fly.
For those who haven't heard the wonderful news, a well-matched print can do wonders for an outfit without necessarily drawing all of the attention away from other aspects!
When you add a garment like the Men's Slim Fit Stretch Non-Iron Performance Pin Dot Dress Shirt to your repertoire, the outfits will fall easily and interchangeably into place. Coming to you from the Ryan Seacrest collection created for Macy's, this top is the neutral with a pop that your wardrobe has been waiting for.
Going for more than one color but wishing to keep it all on congruent sides of the color wheel?
Then I'd highly recommend adding pieces like the Gagne Check Tie to your rotation! Featuring a nondescript navy and sienna brown check pattern contrasted with a stark white, this necktie has all the right elements to make that perfectly understated statement. Wear with navy chino pants and an earth tone dress shirt to complete the look! Keeping it neutral has never felt so natural.
To finish off the segment this week let's revisit the idea of sticking to one shade and playing around within its spectrum.
With the Print Tie & Tie Bar, available from Apt. 9, your wardrobe will gain distinctive character in striking monochrome. Try out a purple floral (can't not have a floral option!), a blue paisley, a mint polka dot or one of 14 other colors up for grabs and watch your outfits stand out in all the right single-shade ways!
