Whether you’re vowing to refine your wardrobe this year or you’re just looking for some inspiration to revive your style, there’s one trend that’s sure to work for every taste and occasion: neutrals. Don’t be fooled by the word neutral — minimal grays, creams, browns, greens, and the like are far from drab. Not only can they be the base of any outfit, but they can be great pairs for trendier colors or patterns. What’s more, you can even partner neutrals together for a sleek, monochrome look.
Need a little inspiration before adopting this trend? We chose five must-have neutrals from Athleta to show you just how these unassuming shades can totally alter any outfit.
