The Pantone colors of the year 2021 have been chosen and they are Ultimate Gray and Iluminating. Well let me try this combination then, with my own grey and yellow. Not the exact colors, but I never like to copy a look or style exactly how it is. I like to give it my own twist!
Grey and yellow, Pantone colors 2021
I haven’t shown this grey checked skirt on the blog yet. I like it when simple lined clothing have a special twist. Like this knotted detail. And it is in a perfect place to conceal something. Like when we go out for dinner and ate to much!( yeah right, what is that, going out for dinner) By the way, can someone explane to me when you write dinner and when diner? I thought that dinner was a meal and diner somewhere where you eat the meal!
The sweater is pre loved by Miss Selfridge and has beautiful lace cuffs with buttons in the same fabric. And the stand-up collar is also made of lace. And is buttoned with three buttons also in the same fabric in the neck. Not very handy to close, so I just pull it quite roughly over my head, completely ruining my hairstyle. Well you will think, what a hairstyle! Yes I know! My hair always looks like I just got out of bed anyway, but trust me, it takes a lot of time to get it that way. But now it looks just horrible because I have to go to the hairdresser so badly! But that will take a while.
Do you like the Pantone colors 2021?

So grey and yellow. Quite a beautiful combination. I’m wearing my yellow ankle boots because that’s the only yellow I have in my closet. Except for a cardigan, which is more ochre then yellow. I love these kind of ankle boots, have them in all kinds of colors, I’m just looking for a pair of cobalt blue ones. And leopard ones!
The long grey cardigan is one of my favorite items of this season! Love to wear long cardigans anyway, but this grey one is very versatile. I like to wear the sleeves three quarter to show of the beautiful cuffs. And I added two lovely little brooches to the outfit!
I would love it if you would share your outfits with #nancysfashionstyle and tag @nancysstyle!
My favorite of last week is: Suzy of The Grey Brunette

Thank you very much Abby! Have a great weekend!
I love grey with a pop of bright yellow – this is a FAB outfit, Nancy! I am down with these lovely colours for 2021.
Dinner = what you eat.
Diner = place you eat (diners are often retro)
Diner = one who dines.
A diner at the diner ordered dinner.
Both Diners are pronounced DIE-ner; Dinner is pronounced “DIH-ner”.
Thanks so much for the linky-party, Nancy!

Thanks Lize! Me to the darker shades!
I really like grey and yellow together! I think the shoes are a fun pop with your outfit and that’s a beautiful skirt! it’s strange seeing you with snow though while it’s so hot and humid here, haha!
You have it right too – diner is an American restaurant and dinner is the meal 🙂

Ah Thanks Mica! That clears things up! Yes I have that with your lovely maxi skirt and shorts outfits! lol. Have a great weekend love!
The yellow booties really make the look! The bright pop of color is nice. I’m not sure how I feel about the pantone color thing – I usually wear what I like and don’t own much yellow but do have some grey. Who knows? Maybe I’ll fall in love with both after seeing so much of them!
xo,

Haha, I did! Well , not really, because I only like this combination because I love the boots. I also don’t care for what colors are the 2021 color!

This is such a fabulous combo! Absolutely love your yellow boots! Your photos are so fun too!

Yes that is really weird!! Lol! Go on the hunt for them!
Love the outfit you styled with Pantone’s colors of the year. Such a winning color combination! The shade of pale grey is so soft and feminine, and the bright yellow booties really change the look! This week, I am also wearing a color favored by Pantone this season, Fired Brick Red. Thanks for hosting the link up, and hope you have a great weekend!
Author
Thanks Di! I am so sorry that I almost never visit your blog as I don’t remember it! I wished I could subscribe to it because you have such a great style!
They are spot on! This is such a great example! I really like your first photo playing in the snow too – very relatable, and can really see your joy shining through.
Author
Haha, but I do hate snow! But it was sunny so that’s fine! Thanks!
I love that grey skirt and the Pantone yellow of the boots is great – it’s a really nice combination!
And you got that right, dinner is the meal and a diner is where you go for a meal 🙂
Have a lovely weekend xxx
Author
Ah thanks Penny! Have a great start of the week!
Your definition of dinner and diner is correct! I love the knotted detail in this skirt and yes to yellow and grey! Really anything with yellow!

Thanks Mireille! You love yellow that much? I never wear it actually but it is a very happy color!
Nancy, these pictures are such fun. And that skirt is divine!
Being a huge fan of grey so looking forward to mixing it with a tad of illuminating yellow. Happy weekend and thanks for hosting. xo Sabina
Author
Thank you very much Sabina!
Love the photos of you enjoying (or pretending to enjoy, perhaps) the snow 🙂
Grey and yellow look so very well together, although I am not sure I have ever attempted this combination before.
Your skirt is fabulous and I can understand why you want to have that type of boots in every colour!
Hope you can go to the hairdresser soon. I was finally able to go yesterday after 4 months. What a relief! xxx
Author
Haha, I was pretending, that’s for sure! Oh you lucky girl, I can go next Monday after 5 months! Haha, it looks awful and I am so tired of it that I’m thinking of shorten it a bit!
OMG, Nancy, I love your take on this color combo!! And I had to laugh as I just posted MY version of this color combination yesterday! Lol! That skirt is SOO cute and those booties absolutely make the outfit!! It’s a brilliant way to add yellow to your look! I can’t believe all that snow you have but you are dressed beautifully for it, my friend. Enjoy the weekend!

Hi, Nancy – I love your outfit! All you had in yellow was a pair of…boots?! What a unique item to have in your closet! You have such a sense of adventure 😉 It’s hard to find much yellow at my house either, but I do love the yellow and grey combination…especially since I love grey. I’ve got a whole lot of grey. So now you’ve inspired me more than ever to try this color combo. I’ve learned I can wear gold jewelry with grey too. Great post – Angie, http://www.yourtrueselfblog.com
