The "Boring" Hue About to Be All Over Our Feeds This Fall

One of the most enjoyable aspects of my job is analyzing trends. And when a new season arrives, I love delving back into our catalog of fashion shows to refresh myself on some of the chicest styles that ruled on the runways six months ago.

One of the most prominent trends I spotted on practically every fall 2020 runway show had one "boring" color scheme in common: gray. Yep, the neutral hue appeared in full force giving us a clear indication of what we can expect to see at all our favorite retailers (and all over our feeds) this upcoming season.

The key to wearing the easy and universally flattering hue this fall is to go full head-to-toe gray—50 shades of gray, if you will (sorry, I had to)—mixing tones, textures, and volume to keep the corporate color interesting. The effect is a cozy and sophisticated look that's pretty difficult to screw up. Ready to instantly elevate your look? Scroll below for plenty of "groutfit" inspiration for the season ahead.

At Dolce & Gabbana, chunky gray knits reigned supreme alongside smoky checks, tweed, and pinstripes.
Various shades of gray were combined in harmonious sophistication at Alberta Ferretti.
Michael Kors gave us a masterclass in layering our grays from head-to-toe.
We all wanted to run out and buy a gray bandeau top and high-waisted skirt after Chanel's F/W 2020 show.
Various shades of gray were mixed and matched at Max Mara, featuring interesting details such as ruffled sleeves and plush fabrics.
Prada proved that a floaty gray dress pairs perfectly with charcoal gray tights and a blazer.
Tom Ford gave a casual-chic spin to gray checks by pairing the print with a relaxed sweatshirt and metallic silver heels.
A gray sweater + suit + overcoat equals one seriously chic fall ensemble.
Effortlessly cool. You can't go wrong with gray-wash jeans and a sumptuous gray knit sweater.
Gray knit shorts and a blazer? Why the heck not?
Don't be afraid to play with volume and length—an oversize gray blazer looks seriously cool with long shorts or culottes.
When in doubt, go for an easy and effortless gray polo-style sweater.
Break up your tailored gray pieces with tan accessories.
Gray needn't be corporate. Try a gray prairie dress to add a touch of romance to your look.

Up next, nine color trends we're about to see everywhere this fall.

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...
