Not loving the grey...

[AnyDream]

Is anyone joining me in not loving the grey that seems to be "the new black" this year?

I went shopping for something pink the other day (to wear for the Mothers Day Classic) and some shops I walked into were just a sea of grey - and other dull, lacklustre colours.

There's not even any really strong black or chocolate brown to work with!

I thought you meant as in hair

I was going to say... but it's sooo mystical.

Grey wouldn't even get a look in with me. If it ain't black it goes back

URGH!!! that and BEIGE! So it is a step up from bloody pastels but everything? There is just no colour anywhere this winter.

:yeahthat: LOL

I couldn't agree more. Just look for out of season bargains... there was more colour last year!

Give me reds, oranges, blues... ANYTHING but dull washed out shades....

Unfortunately grey is the colour this winter!! And yes the beige is HORRIBLE!!!! And have you started to see the Apricot and Peach like what is happening :s

I thought you meant hair too!

I love grey! I wear it with black - I'm with Cai I am a black girl too... But I wear it all with bright reds, bright pinks, soft pink etc etc... Accessorise with bright colours and you can still feel bright!

I agree Inanna it *could* be salvaged using other colours...problem is, after not shopping at all (except for a frenzied beanie-search or two) last year my entire wardrobe is very sad and sorry and needs a sizeable overhaul...let's hope the op-shopping is better this year.

I thought you meant hair as well and was going to suggest the semi works for me!

Are you in Melbourne Marydean?? I just can't imagine Melbourne in anything other than black
If you are not...come on over and shop blackl!!

I have been having this same whinge to my friends! I am a black bottoms girl but like to put something colourful on top and everything is grey or grey and black stripes. in desparation, bought something with purple in it but it still had black and grey in it as well.

My hair is dark and skin is very fair so winter blacks and greys do nothing for me, unlike one of my sisters who has blonde hair and tanned skin who looks fantastic in every colour.

Im craving some colour too, but I am making do with the lighter greys and whites, coupled with dark blue jeans and metallic shoes (which I just love). Why cant chocolate be in this year? It suits my hair and complexion perfectly.
