I Live in Neutrals; Here Are 50+ Outfits I've Saved on Instagram For Inspiration

A neutral outfit might not seem like the most inspired idea when it comes to getting dressed, but as a bona-fide neutral addict, I can tell you how much impact a muted outfit can have. When sticking to colors like black, brown, gray, ivory, navy, and beige, you have a huge opportunity to experiment with layers, textures, and silhouettes without feeling like you're going overboard. For me personally, I somehow always feel like I'm overdoing it if I mix and match brighter colors and prints. But when I do so with a subdued palette, I'm so much more willing to try an outfit formula I haven't worn before (right now, sportier pieces like sweatshirts and sneakers are on my list of things to try as an offset to my tailored and feminine staples), embrace different accessories (the "ugly" shoe trend being one I'm currently obsessed with), and experiment with statement-making shapes and materials like a superoversize blazer or a leather dress. Don't get me wrong, I love to try trends and put new colors and prints to the test. It's just a lot easier for me to piece together a good outfit when it's grounded in neutrals.

Another reason I love neutral colors? The versatility! I live for wardrobe basics like tees, jeans, and slip dresses because they make a hurried morning a little more manageable. I know I can throw on any of these items in pretty much any combination with a cool shoe, a great bag, and a piece of jewelry and look put-together. Since I tend more minimalist with my aesthetic, I also know that when I buy a new item, be it an investment piece or affordable find, it will instantly jive with the rest of my wardrobe and, most likely, last in my closet a long time.

Since I stick to neutrals on most days, I know how easy it is for fatigue to set in. So I've rounded up 50-plus outfits I saved in my "styling inspiration" folder on Instagram with the hope that it will help spark new outfit ideas the next time you're taking good old neutrals for a spin. From tailored to sporty and feminine, tons of inspiration lies ahead.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
