Mono for SS13

Nicole Richie & Jessica Alba nailed the monochrome trend at
Paris Fashion Week this season.
Monochrome has taken over the catwalk again this season and is a huge hit as it's so simple. Block colours/patterns in minimal colours. Yes, as simple as that. Think black and white and you're there. Most high street shops have gazillions of monochrome outfits, and finding black and white clothes could not be easier. Topshop is just one of the many stores that have an awesome range of monochrome pieces. Take a look here.
Even just having a rummage through your wardrobe at home, I'm sure you'll be able to piece together an outfit. Give it a go :) 

1988 film icon 'Beetlejuice'
Even the unhygienic, exorcist, crazy man 'Beetlejuice' loved his monochrome and he sure as hell made that black and white striped suit his own 25 years ago. As a young teen I loved him and many designers since then have strutted his famous suit about the catwalk (or some slight variations).

1994 cult classic 'Pulp Fiction'
Uma Thurman rocked the monochrome in my all time favourite film 'Pulp Fiction' as drug-addled mafia wife Mia. I know, granted the gorgeous Uma can probably pull off any trend but my point being, monochrome has been around for many many MANY years and is still so classy now. I doubt that monochrome will ever die out... so how can you lose out in having an outfit? 


Some monochrome outfits from London Fashion Week. Love No.4!
