The gray coat has long become a classic outerwear item. This product fits perfectly into business, romantic, everyday and even formal looks, so many fashionistas have purchased one or more similar models for themselves. Meanwhile, not all young ladies know what to wear a gray coat with, and what wardrobe items it is better not to combine it with.
What to wear with a light gray coat
This coat looks great with dark blue and light gray jeans, black, dirty pink and pale pink trousers. It can be included both in an everyday look in a casual spirit, and in a business or office look. Since a coat of a light gray shade (we are talking about strict styles) is combined with dark pencil skirts, black and dark gray trouser suits, and white shirts.
At the same time, a light gray coat is surprisingly wonderful in an ensemble with a delicate peach dress or blouse. Also, it can make a good company with a lilac or eggplant sweater, a gray or raspberry jumper, or a cream top with lace.
Who is it suitable for?
Gray is a calm and neutral color that will go with any color. Gray color speaks of qualities such as intelligence and rigor. It's great on its own or as a backdrop for brighter colors in your wardrobe.
A gray coat can be recommended to any girl, regardless of hair color and appearance color type. Gray color is achromatic. It is formed by mixing black and white colors. There are countless shades of gray. Therefore, every girl can choose her own gray coat:
- Deep dark gray color is best suited for brunettes with fair skin.
- For blondes with dark gray shades, we can recommend “monsoon”, and for brown-haired women and girls with dark skin tones, we can recommend “graphite”. Blondes are very fond of choosing a light gray coat. But a very pale gray color is still more suitable for dark girls.
- In terms of body type, gray also does not impose any restrictions. Both thin and plump girls can choose the right style and the right shade of a gray coat.
What to wear with a dark gray coat
safely wear a dark gray coat with black trousers and jeans. We periodically replace them with wine and plum ones. Light blue jeans also go in this row; they look better with a dark gray coat than with any other outerwear.
into an office style no worse than a light gray one, because it will also suit the official white and black color scheme. As for non-dress code situations, wear this coat with simple black dresses, gray and crimson sweaters, denim and plaid shirts, and dark blue dresses.
Twist with hidden ends
Double loop
Wrap the scarf once around your neck with the seam at the back, make a figure 8 at the front and place the bottom loop over your head again. You should now have two circles at the front. Make sure they lie inside each other so that the scarf rests against your chest.
Circular wrap
Wrap the accessory around your neck until it forms a covering that resembles a turtle's neck. Tuck the ends of the scarf in so they are not visible.
Socket
Gather your hair into a ponytail, place the middle of the scarf at the back of your neck, and place the ends to your forehead. Twist them together and let the tie curl into a spiral like a hair bun. Tuck the end under the spiral and let it stick out so it looks like petals.
What to wear with a gray knee-length coat
We recommend skinny leather trousers, skinny jeans in various colors, cropped trousers and boyfriend jeans. As a top that matches these items, you can use simple shirts, cozy sweaters and jumpers, plain T-shirts and cardigans, and striped long sleeves.
Alluring , playful looks are achieved with dresses shorter than your coat or shorts, especially leather ones. But remember that in this case the top should be closed; a necklace or several pendants will help decorate it.
How to tie a scarf depending on its type
Long warm scarf
The most simple and well-known method is the European one. Fold the scarf in half, forming a fold on 1 end and 2 loose ends on the other side. Wrap the middle of the scarf around your neck so that the 2 ends are on the left and the loop is on the right, everything facing forward. Thread the two loose sleeves through the loop and pull them toward your throat.
Long light scarf
Middle of the bow: Wrap the scarf around the back of your neck, adjusting the ends so that one is longer than the other. Cross the larger sleeve over the short one and pull it up from the bottom, forming a loop. While pulling, hold the loop so that the scarf tightly wraps around your neck.
Straighten the bow and put it on the side or in front.
4 in hand: Fold the scarf in half and wrap it around the back of your neck with a loop on one side. Pull the end through the loop and twist it. Pull the other scarf sleeve through the loop. Adjust the volume of the scarf so that it looks beautiful on your chest.
Light square scarf
Headband: Try tying a scarf around the back of your neck with the ends hanging down in front (just wrap it around). Combine them on one side of the neck and start twisting. When the twist becomes elastic, wrap it with radial movements on the neck with your fingers in order to collect it into a bun. When you get to the ends, tuck them into a huge loop around your neck so they hold on like petals.
Double Wrap French Knot: Take a square silk scarf and fold it into a long, graceful rope. Then find the middle and put it on the front of your neck. Bring the ends of the scarf forward again. Tie a knot on the side of the neck and fix it at your own discretion.
What to wear with a long gray coat (below the knees)
first tip, which we want to emphasize with a very bold line, is to combine a gray maxi coat with a black lingerie-style dress with lace trim. Incredibly stylish look. Another interesting story turns out with a black T-shirt dress (unusual shoes are simply necessary here - sneakers, rough boots, loafers).
Next, we again recommend cropped trousers and jeans (preferably boyfriend or mom), and a simple turtleneck to go with them. Plus, try a leather pencil skirt and wide-leg trousers for a semi-sporty look. Playing with textures and, so to speak, styles is always beneficial.
Windsor knot
This is the perfect way to demonstrate how to tie a scarf around your neck beautifully, especially if it's thin, silky and has a gorgeous design.
The style may take a little practice, especially if you've never experienced tying a tie.
- Start as you would when tying any knot, with the wide end hanging low on the right side of the body. Cross the wide end of the scarf over the narrow one and loop the bottom.
- Thread the wide end upward to create a knot.
- Pass it through the front of the knot, and then make a loop at the bottom.
- Thread the wide end through the front of the knot.
- Tighten and adjust.
The key to success? Keep your scarf looser than your tie and keep it a little messy.
What shoes to wear with a gray coat
I think that here we will not discover America if we say that with almost anyone. Wear long and short coats with sneakers, rough boots, and pumps. A coat longer than the knee prefers high boots (rubber, leather, suede), ankle boots, ankle boots with thick heels, and wedge sneakers. As for the color scheme: white, black, burgundy, dark blue, plum, purple, shades of gray, red.
Which scarf and hat to wear with a gray coat
The first item is a scarf. Choose voluminous options in which you can wrap yourself up well; like fur and knitted variations. The main thing we will guide you in is colors. The scarf can be plain, black, gray, dark blue, emerald, red. Of the prints, we especially appreciate checkered ones: red-black, gray-white, green-burgundy.
The second point is a headdress. Knitted hats, simple and voluminous, go well with a gray coat. Leather baseball caps. Caps and hats with medium-width brims. Colors: black, raspberry, burgundy, dark gray, emerald.
