The week can't start more beautifully than with Monochrome Monday. Here you can find my favourite look every Monday - tone in tone. How did we come up with it? Quite simple: On Mondays the style genes always need a bit longer to get going - in the complete look of one colour we start the week more relaxed and with a concept.
Welcome to my grey area. This time the monochrome Monday focuses on anthracite and that from head to toe. With this colour, as dark as Hamburg's sky when it rains, I officially ring in autumn. 081430 is the colour code for the deep dark grey, which also looks very good on walls and furniture. Non-color frowned upon? Not with me.

Great word creations such as "Pussywillowgrey", "Wet Weather", "Misty Grey" or "Charcoal" are supposed to make us look dark grey in a whole new look (or is it the light).

The color experts interpret the comeback of gray as a "movement of retreat and minimalization from a society overloaded with information," says Laurie Pressman, vice president of the Pantone Color Institute. As a result, "shades of grey express our need for security and our desire to turn inward. I like to wrap myself in grey - especially if it's made of cuddly knit - even if my boyfriend thinks I look like a bat. He should take care that I don't fly away from him.
