Monochrome trend 2019: Make style work for you, no matter your age or budget

This season the high street is awash with black and white shades.

Instead of pairing them with coloured separates, wear them together and keep your outfit tonal for maximum impact.

Whilst black is always known to be super flattering shade for all figure sizes, white isn't often considered a flattering colour.

But when you pair elements of white clothing and accessories in with black pieces, it's a great way to freshen your look whilst still looking age appropriate.

Long gone are the days when white shoes were synonymous with 1980s Essex nightclubs, a white boot in 2019 is the perfect autumn accessory, and absolutely on trend.

So if you fancy your hand at this must have wearable trend, here are our styling tips...
