Selecting pieces in one color is an easy way to create a chic look for day or night. This trend can be executed using matching sets, pictured above, or by taking the tonal approach, pictured in the following images. I love tonal outfits, especially in neutrals. I find them to be modern, timeless and eye catching. To create a successful tonal look, mixing different tones of a single color is key vs. just matching everything from head to toe. This creates depth and interest. Any color works for a tonal outfit,  an easy casual option is denim on denim. I also love the warm rich hues in the two outfits pictured below. As I mentioned above, using different tones of a single color is what makes these looks so strong, taking that a strong further, the mixing of textures really elevates and brings these looks together.A little parting note, I have a very crazy few weeks of shoots coming up so posting will continue to be on the slower side. I hope to have more time for creating Elevates Basics content soon.
