Gray color attracts women with its practicality and severity. It’s no wonder that business suits and school uniforms are often made in these colors.
Gray women's trousers, rules of combinations
Women's trousers in all shades of gray are simply designed for off-season and everyday wear. They are non-staining and go well with various accessories. It is much more difficult to choose a harmonious blouse, jumper or T-shirt for white and black trousers, but this color can be combined in the most unusual way, creating incredible compositions.
Variety of shades
You should not assume that “grayness” is exclusively the prerogative of an office worker, a kind of inconspicuous mouse-like person. In fact, just one name hides a whole palette of shades. These are the classic ones:
- steel;
- ashen;
- graphite;
- wet asphalt;
- metallic, charcoal.
and exotic:
- twilight;
- monastery;
- pearl;
- fluff;
- swamp;
- almonds and others.
Among them there are warm tones, and cold, and light, almost white, and dark, and greenish and yellowish.Therefore, when saying “gray”, you should not rely only on mouse or ash color. Accordingly, women's trousers of different colors will be combined with the top in different ways.
Models
When choosing a combination of a gray bottom with various blouses, shirts and sweaters, you should pay attention not only to the color, but also to the style. For example, loose, oversized pants should not be combined with a baggy sweater or shirt. Especially if they are light in color! You risk turning into something between a sack of potatoes and a monk in rags.
IMPORTANT! Loose-fitting trousers should be complemented by a bright, fitted top.
Steel-gray leather pants should not be complemented with the same jacket, it looks rough and vulgar. It is better to wear a matte bottom with a jacket.
With leggings and jeggings, the most harmonious look would be: a long shirt, tunic or short dress.
IMPORTANT! Do not wear tight pearl or light gray trousers on plump legs, this will visually make them look fuller. But for thin legs, these tones are just perfect, adding appetizing to the curves.
Low-waisted trousers should never be combined with short T-shirts or tops. This is how they wore it in the 90s and now it is not fashionable.
IMPORTANT! Make it a rule - if the top is short, we wear the bottom with a high waist and vice versa.
How to match with top
Let's look at the most popular combinations of gray trousers of different shades and models with tops to create looks in different styles.
- Business classic. Naturally, let's start with the most popular office style. Classic ash, dark gray or gray blue trousers with a matching jacket are in perfect harmony with the blouse.The advantage of this color is that it looks great on any figure: it does not make you look fat, unlike white, and does not make you slim, unlike black. Any dress code can be satisfied with a classic suit in gray tones and a formal blouse.
- Set for outdoor or outdoor recreation. There is complete freedom of imagination here: Knitted sweaters or bright T-shirts, autumn berets or ponchos - everything goes perfectly with gray trousers. Just don’t dress in monochrome colors, for example, light gray bottoms and a white or beige top. It is better to add bright accessories to this combination: a brooch, scarf, belt or shoes. A scarlet, green, blue or multi-colored addition will enliven the “ghost costume”, add style and make the image new.
- Evening style. Elegant gray trousers that fit the figure and a stylish low-necked blouse are a great combination for the evening. Complete the suit with shoes and a handbag, and you are ready to go on a date.
Pair with shoes and accessories
Gray is perhaps the only color that looks harmonious with any bright additions. Printed trousers in red and blue tones look both fashionable and not rude. Rhinestones and beads, sequins and studs - everything will find its place here and will not be superfluous.
When choosing suitable shoes for gray women's trousers, you should start from the style, and not from the color.
Stylish looks
Let's consider gray trousers as part of the most current sets.
- Ash knit sweatpants combined with a pink, blue or green sweater and sneakers are the perfect set for jogging in cool weather;
- blue-gray or graphite skinny trousers and pastel colors, a thin chiffon blouse - a romantic look even in the workplace;
- matte jeggings, high boots or ankle boots, complemented by an elongated coat - a stylish city lady on a walk in the off-season.
