Looks to suit your silver streaks

Have you ditched the hair salon and gone back to your roots during the pandemic? Accentuate your silver streaks with these four trendy fashion combos

- BY JARRED DE KOCK

TIP

Coordinate your outfit with accessorie­s that match the colour scheme. If your print has a white base opt for white shoes to match.

Grey-haired model and influencer Petra van Bremen shows how to make a colour statement in Hamburg, Germany. She rocks a yellow-and-white floral print skirt by Guido Maria Kretschmer, light brown jacket and multicolou­red scarf by Roberto Cavalli, completing her look with white boots and a light brown Ralph Lauren bag.

Seamlessly blend in your grey streaks with your look. Go for light prints and combine them with tan and muted textured pieces such as leather and suede for a bright but subtle look.

Complete your ensemble with a few accessorie­s or be even more creative and make a bold statement with accessorie­s in bright complement­ary colours such as greens and reds.

Silver-haired Instagram star and blogger Tennille Murphy rounds off her all-white dress and longline cardigan look with black military boots.

Make the most of your grey hair and let it be the standout feature of an all-white look. Combine crisp white pieces with chunky military boots and gold accessorie­s for a Grecian standout white-on-white tonal combo that’s perfect for any occasion.

TIP

Bring textures into an all-white look by adding ribbed knits and leather pieces to your ensemble.

Match your hair with items in grey tones and brown hues. Own the colour by going for a muted, chic aesthetic that has a subtle print for edge: think autumn hues and patterned and fun motifs such as feathers, florals and Aztec prints.

TIP

Match earthy tones with tan and gold accessorie­s for a fun, playful look.
