Simple can be stunning.

{I think I’ve mentioned this before, no?}
This all-gray ensemble worn by Dree Hemingway sums it up pretty perfectly. I love the idea of pairing a simple cotton tee with a drapey skirt in the same color – not to be outdone by a fabulous pair of neutral shoes. We all know by now that I usually find neutrals to be the chicest choice, and going all-out monochromatic only takes it one step further.
I’m sure many of us are familiar with this particular gray tee from American Apparel. I love the super soft fabric, and I have several of them in both the tee as shown and the v-neck style. This outfit really demonstrates how versatile a tee can be. She actually designed the skirt she’s wearing – I’m impressed – but I did find this version which looks incredibly similar. She also rocked the Loubies, of course, which I love – but you can always find great neutral pumps from sources like Aldo (my personal favorite) or Steve Madden for a much lower price tag.
As far as the bag goes, a black Balenciaga satchel works for any occasion, and she proves that point – but I wouldn’t mind seeing a pop of color here. I think an animal-print would be especially beautiful, and keeping the bag somewhat within the neutral category does solidify the theme she’s working right now.
I also love how she kept her jewelry totally minimal, as well as her hair and makeup. She looks like she could roll right out of bed looking like this – and I think that’s about as sexy as it gets.
What do you think, dolls? Does this type of look do it for you, or do you need a little more to get you going?

I loveeee this look! Especially in nude and white!
I adore Dree’s monochromatic outfit, especially the draping. Heather gray doesn’t do my pale skin any favors, but I’m a sucker for deep, solid shades of gray. In fact, I picked up a skirt quite like hers yesterday at Gap: http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5727&vid=1&pid=772223
I LOVE gray and most single-color outfits. I tried to do a gray outfit last weekend, but one of my layers on top made it look like I was wearing a bathrobe. haha!
she pulls that off so well! man..
