Beth has created a clothing challenge called Magnificent Seventh - on the 7th of each month a group of us will be shopping our own wardrobes to create styles upon some really fun themes.
This month is MONOCHROME. Now I originally thought this just meant black and white, and although I wear black sometimes, I don't like to wear totally black. I spent too long hiding my body in black shapeless clothes, so I now avoid just black where possible. If I do wear a black dress, I wear it with bright leggings.
I do often wear black and white and brown for work, but my work clothes tend to be REALLY boring, so instead I looked monochrome up on Wikipedia and found it can be shades of the same colour. I instantly knew which outfit I'd share.
This peach dress is from New Look, I got it about this time last year. It's a really gorgeous style on me; I have three dresses in this style now.
Lee took this photo, the sun is so bright but that's gorgeous, I love sunny weather!
The shrug is from Yours Clothing, I got it at the end of last year in the sale. They have lots similar, though.
This is a close up of the print.
So yes, this IS monochrome, because it's two shades of peach!
