Beige Is My Favorite Color—Here Are 5 Neutral Outfits to Help You Understand Why

I've recently been inspired by our team's amazing advertising sales associate Emily Gerstein, who almost exclusively wears shades of beige, white, and off-white. No really, she describes her style as "grandma beige," although I'd argue her everyday monochromatic looks are seriously stylish. My grandma is cool, but I don't think she could pull these outfits off quite as well.

The reason Emily's monochromatic looks are so successful is that she chooses pieces that are in the same color spectrum but ever so slightly different. From my point of view, this helps each piece have a visual moment rather than everything blending into one big blob of fabric. "It's a mix and match mentality. Everything in my wardrobe goes together, making getting dressed easy," she explains. See and shop her looks below, and prepare to become a monochromatic convert.

This puffy-sleeve tiered dress makes a big statement when worn alone (see the sleeves below), but I love that Emily wears a tan blazer on top to give it a bit more shape. As much as I'm hoping H&M makes this dress in more colors, I'm definitely buying this beige one to start.
This look is a great example of what I said above about her outfits being comprised of pieces that seem like they're almost all the same color until you look closely and realize they're not. The various shades of off-white in the cozy button-down knit, faux-leather skirt, and combat boots are so effortlessly chic.
I never knew I needed white tights ($19 on Amazon!) until seeing them paired with this short-sleeve white dress from Danielle Bernstein's Macy's collection. This piece sold out in minutes so I'm truly impressed she snagged one. Luckily, it's now back in stock, so act fast!
This eggshell blazer is so polished, and I never would have thought to wear it with bright white denim. (Until now of course.) For a major plot twist, she finishes off this creamy-colored look with gold footwear. Gold is technically just a shiny beige, right?
Alert: This Zara top is still available, and it's only $40. It's such a statement piece thanks to those bold, lacy sleeves. I'd be tempted to wear it with blue or black jeans, but these simple white trousers and off-white combat boots feel just right here.

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...
