Much needed Fashion Pinspiration

It's common to wear dark neutrals in the winter.  The weather is dreary mostly, and that chill in the air makes us all subconsciously gravitate toward those fabulous, figure-flattering blacks/grays/taupes that we are all so comfortable wearing.  I know that for me, no matter how I accessorize or style dark colors differently... I end up feeling like I wore the same thing several days in a row.  Not good.

I knew I was getting the itch for some really rich, fall appropriate colors to spice up my wardrobe.  Then I saw this editorial from the Nov 2011 issue of Vogue Spain.  Wow.  WOW.  Every now and then, I see an editorial or photo shoot that just inspires me on a different level.  These images are SO stunning.  Everything is perfect with this shoot... the clothes (Gucci always does it right), the accessories, the hair and makeup, the styling, (not to mention Natasha Poly, with whom I am slightly obsessed)...GORGEOUS.  If these pics don't inspire you to incorporate color into your fall and winter wardrobe, I don't know what will.

    There are too many perfect things about this series to list in one comment. So inspirational! LOVE the wide leg trousers, the rich merlot color peppered throughout, her makeup--all of it. I'm obsessed with the lip color. Incredible, and perfect for the season. Beautiful post!

    This IS wow! I am guilty of the black/gray (all year round actually) Maybe it's time to inject some colour...
