Trench:Zara|Cardigan:Zara|Leggings:H+M|Booties:Zara|Bag:Zara|Necklace:Vintage

The best way to offset a somber palette is to add a jolt of color. Alice took her neutrals up a notch with boldly patterned leggings.

SHANNON | MINNEAPOLIS | ROCKET SCIENTIST | DIRTY HAIR HALO

Dress:Forever 21|Scarf:Thrifted|Purse:Thrifted|Wedges:Forever 21

Because their spacing is perfectly balanced, Swiss dots are one of the easiest patterns to pair with a print. Here, Shannon uses a scarf with large washes of subtle color.

NINI | DALLAS | FASHION CONSULTANT+BLOGGER | NINI'S STYLE

Blouse:Costume National|Shorts:Comme des Garçons|Boots:Barneys|Tights:Spanx

Combining black and orange doesn't necessarily mean Halloween. Err towards the subtler side of the orange spectrum, like Nini did with her sorbet-colored blouse.

FIL | MILAN | STUDENT | THE THREE F

Blazer:John Ashfield|Cardigan:Topman|Shirt:Ralph Lauren|Jeans:Cheap Monday|Glasses:Cheap Monday|Sneakers:Converse

Fil flips the sartorial script beautifully by trading in his sharp blazer for a casual, crimson cardigan—a perfect example of the differences created through shape and color.

ILANKA | ROTTERDAM | FASHION BLOGGER | FASHIONNERDIC

Jacket:H+M|Tank:H+M|Shorts:Jane Norman|Booties:River Island|Sunglasses:H+M

A print can offer that pop usual found in striking hues. Ilanka takes a neutral palette up a notch by incorporating floral high-waisted shorts that don't clash with her existing color story, but complements it.

NICOLE | AUSTRALIA | VINTAGE BOUTIQUE OWNER | GARY PEPPER VINTAGE

Sweater:Vintage|Shorts:Camilla+Marc|Belt:Vintage|Loafers:Vintage|Broach:Vintage

There's no better way to take in nature than in neutrals made of natural fibers. Nicole takes her cut-offs up a notch in a sweater with sweet details.

AURELIA| PARIS | MEDIA |FASHION IS A PLAYGROUND

Blazer:Zara|Blouse:Vintage|Shorts:Zara|Bag:Vintage|Wedges:Zara|Belt:Vintage|Socks:H+M

Coffee and cream with a touch of nutmeg is Aurélia's way of staying within the same color family while creating chic contrasts.

Sweater:Vintage|Blouse:Vintage|Cut-offs:Edwin|Booties:Vintage

Shorts and layers answer the call regarding what to wear on mild days that end up on the cooler side.

AURELIA| PARIS | MEDIA |FASHION IS A PLAYGROUND

Jacket:Nouvelle Selection|Tee:Urban Outfitters|Shorts:H+M|Sandals:Zara

What better way to add a little luxe than with sequins? Whether in shorts (as in Aurélia's case) or another casual staple such as a tee or leggings, a traditionally sporty piece in a chic material is the epitome of sartorial modernity.

NICOLE | AUSTRALIA | VINTAGE BOUTIQUE OWNER | GARY PEPPER VINTAGE

Top:Thrifted|Corset:Thrifted|Shorts:Thrifted|Necklace:Vintage|Wedges:Jeffrey Campbell

Nicole is back with her take on the black + white color story. She plays with both dimension (wedges) and texture (lace top), emphasizing the contrast in the opposing colors.

NINI | DALLAS | FASHION CONSULTANT+BLOGGER | NINI'S STYLE

Dress:Forever 21|Pumps:Yves Saint Laurent|Tights:Wolford|Rings:Forever 21

Bringing your A-game is just a phone call away with Nini's help. Keep in mind, when doing monochromatic, consider different textures in order to maintain visual interest.

NATHALIE | ITALY | LAW STUDENT | MY FLOOR IS RED

Jacket:Topshop|Shirt:French Connection|Shorts:Zara|Booties:DinSko|Bag:Miu Miu|Tights:Calzedonia|Belt:Claudio Orciani

Remember a neutral can be a pop color, too. Nathalie's palette is somber with muted tones, but she brilliantly uses a café au lait-colored bag as if it were the brightest hue in the spectrum.

IRIS | THE NETHERLANDS | FASHION STUDENT | FASHION ZEN

Blazer:Vintage|Skirt:DIY/H+M|Sandals:Sonia Rykiel|Bag:Chanel

Miu Miu's swallows follow Iris to her runway inspired skirt. When hit with a jolt of creativity, save the trip to Barneys and do-it-yourself...unless you're a counterfeiter. Then it's probably not such a good idea.

SYBIANNA | HOUSTON | MODEL, PHOTOGRAPHER AND PAINTER | THE DREAMER

Tank:Vintage|Nala Jungle Print Skirt:Vintage Byer|Boots:Vintage

Always understated in style, Sybianna pairs a great graphic skirt with a heather grey tank. The cognac boots we saw earlier in her tenure on See Your Style make another appearance to great effect.

ISA | ITALY | STUDENT | 7 HEURES DU MAT

Blouse:Vintage|Skirt:Vintage Giorgio Armani|Oxfords:Max + Co.

Isa, See Your Style's heirloom heiress, keeps her florals well hydrated in both her skirt print and the lovely laser-cuts in her blouse.

Blazer:Lisa Ho|Blouse:Vintage|Skirt:Vintage|Booties:Vintage|Bag:Vintage|Socks:Paddy's

With the Sydney Opera House looming in the background, Emma performs the art of sharp casual dressing. She plays with levels (prints and textures aren't the only options when it comes to visual interest) with a short boot, long socks, a mini, and a boyfriend blazer.

JOSS | MANCHESTER | BLOGGER | SIR JOSS

Jacket:Thrifted|Shirt:H+M|Jeans:Topman/DIY

Riding on a Vespa creates a cooler breeze than usual, and a cool breeze requires cool layers. If things get too warm, there's always chic, DIY ventilation.

NINI | DALLAS | FASHION CONSULTANT+BLOGGER | NINI'S STYLE

Coat:Vintage|Tank:Helmut Lang|Cut-offs:Vintage Levi's|Pumps:Yves Saint Laurent|Sunglasses:Super

White tanks and faded cut-offs are warm weather staples. But when there's a chill in the air, dismiss the Unibomber hoodie and opt for a striking piece like See Your Style's A-Game queen Nini.

FIL | MILAN | STUDENT | THE THREE F

Jacket:D Squared|Shirt:Dior Homme|Jeans:H+M|Bow Tie:Cor Sine Labe Doli|Shoes:Vintage

Fil brings the tuxedo into 2010 with a witty ceramic bow tie and tailored jeans. This is the best update of the classic since the tuxedo tee!

IRIS | THE NETHERLANDS | FASHION STUDENT | FASHION ZEN

Dress:H+M|Heels:H+M

A frothy floral motif makes this ethereal dress one of the loveliest pieces for the summer. To avoid a completely blanched-out look, Iris adds a cognac-colored clutch.

CHARLES | BRISTOL + LONDON | JOURNALIST | THE PINSTRIPE PRINCE

Cardigan:Vintage|Vest:Vintage|Tee:Vintage|Jeans:Vintage|Necklaces:Vintage|Boots:Vintage

Even though it's June, in some locales the weather still necessitates layers. Charles maintains visual interest with varied, yet complementary textures.

CRYSTAL| LOS ANGELES | SOCIAL WORKER | WATERMOOLEN

Shirt:Miley Cyrus for Max Azria|Jeans:Allen B.|Bag:Thrifted

Some call it the Canadian Tuxedo. I've always known it as the Texas Tuxedo. Either way, Crystal pulls off a polished double-denim look while managing to keep any black-tie references at bay. The key: two washes that contrast and complement each other simultaneously.

AURELIA| PARIS | MEDIA |FASHION IS A PLAYGROUND

Cardigan:Urban Outfitters|Top:Topshop|Shorts:Zara|Wedges:Zara|Bag:Zara|Belt:Vintage

Aurélia adds charm to a casual outfit by incorporating pieces with character—like the special stitching on the bag or the blue border on the cardigan's button placket. As always, make sure special elements don't compete with each other.

MELANIE | LOS ANGELES | FASHION JOURNALIST |MELANIE LIKES

Cardigan:Vintage|Blouse:Vintage|Shorts:Vintage|Hat:Vintage|Booties:Vintage|Belt:Vintage|Sunglasses:Vintage

Channeling sorbet flavors in her cardigan and shorts, Melanie keeps her palette sweet with chocolate accents in her accessories.

ILANKA | ROTTERDAM | FASHION BLOGGER | FASHIONNERDIC

Blazer:New Look|Top:H+M|Skirt:H+M|Booties:Asos

Ilanka bumps up her neutrals with a striking graphic print. When wearing something that undoubtedly will catch the eye, make sure there are no competing elements elsewhere in the outfit.

ANNA | NEW YORK | STUDENT

Top:Anthropologie|Shorts:Vintage|Flats:J. Crew|Bag:Coach

Anna anchors her look with a nautical element but saves the deck shoes for another day. By incorporating an unexpected print (Anna uses leopard in her shoes) into a classic outfit, it breathes an air of modernity into it.

SIMONE | BROOKLYN | FOUNDER OF STANTON + WILLIAMS STYLE THERAPY/BLOGGER

Cardigan:Alexander Wang|Top:Theory|Skirt:Alexander Wang|Sandals:Seychelles|Clutch:Vintage|Necklace:Jin Ju Kim

I've owned this long cardigan for a week and have already worn it a couple of times. While the Style Therapy philosophy is about efficient clothing, it's also about wearing pieces you love and that feel good on. There's no shame in repeating...as long as the rest of your wardrobe isn't neglected.

EMMA | SYDNEY | VINTAGE COLLECTOR + STORE OWNER | SPIN DIZZY FALL

Blazer:Lisa Ho|Leather Shorts:DIY|Tee:DIY |Booties:Rubi|Tights:eBay

Emma maintains a neutral palette and adds visual interest through texture in Swiss dot tights and leather shorts.

FIL | MILAN | STUDENT | THE THREE F

Blazer:Dior Homme|Shirt:Ralph Lauren|Pants:Cheap Monday|Bag:Louis Vuitton|Shoes:Vintage

Fil punctuates traditional menswear with witty accents. A patterned bow tie and monk strap shoes add extra mileage when expertly combined.

NINI | DALLAS | FASHION CONSULTANT+BLOGGER | NINI'S STYLE

Jacket:Dolce + Gabbana|Top:BCBG|Shorts:Forever 21|Necklace:Janis Savitt|Pumps:Fendi|Tights:American Apparel

Nini takes the contrast of black + white beautifully into the evening. Luxe fabrics, featured in her stilettos and jacket, add both sophistication and visual interest to a two-color palette.
