With a new season comes a new reason for new content — and I’m V excited about this new bit I’m about to share.
If you’ve been following The Grey Edit for awhile, you know that I love a good series — so much I’ve got ones dedicated to beats, wants, deals and friday faves. Which is why I’m so stoked to introduce the latest and greatest inspo…
In collaboration with two of the coolest gals that I’ve been so lucky to get to know through the local blogging community — I’m bringing you a chance to join the dialogue on style.
Ladies and babes — this is Stylelogue.

Stylelogue is the new monthly series created by three women styling current trends with their own unique and individual flair. These ladies share commonalities across style, blogging and their desire to inspire their local Seattle community and beyond.
Elisa Yip of E for Elisa brings a consistently fresh perspective on style through her 20 years of experience in the fashion industry and daily life adventures. She shares looks that push the envelope, reflect her mood and compliment her creative edge. Elisa is spunky, unapologetic and fierce. I’m truly lucky to have found her.
Mary Krosnjar of Sportsanista is a pro at building a life full of the things she loves most — sports and fashion. She’s been in the game since she was 18 and has been building a platform over the last six years that allows women to channel their inner sportsanista. Mary has an infectious energy and sports looks that consistently inspire. So happy this Chicagoan turned Seattleite and I connected.
Cortney Bigelow of The Grey Edit — not sure if you know her ;)– is a lover of all things monochromatic and elevated. She left her corporate career this year to pursue her dreams of building a brand around style and becoming an entrepreneur. With a goal of inspiring women to find their own edit, she hopes to create content that aids in the journey.
Each month, we’ll be sharing our take on a current trend via our own blogs to continue the dialogue on style.
Be sure you’re following E for Elisa and Sportsanista to stay in the loop!
Think of us as trend observers — doing the leg work on what’s new and what’s hot for you. We’ll spit the facts and share our unique takes on what you need to stay on trend during the current season.
Which brings us to the very first Stylelogue topic — the November issue — Chunky Sweater Weather.
When summer turns to fall, a style epidemic hits the masses. Women flock to their favorite retailers to grab the latest boots, coats, scarves and most importantly — sweaters — to compile their cozy, “cold weather looks”.
Which is why E, MK and I felt it was completely necessary to talk about how chunky sweaters are having a moment this season. It’s imperative you dress for the breezy sweater weather with a slightly oversized, thick knit garment such as this.
You guys know I love building an outfit off of grey. This time, I tried to do things a little differently.
I was inspired by the subtle mauve color in these cropped trousers to find a cable knit sweater that was of a similar hue — which led me to this pretty pairing.
I made sure the ivory in the sweater was represented in my accessories — really trying to relay the fact that you don’t have to put away your white pieces once the cold weather hits.
The range of materials ranging from wool to cotton, leather to pvc, gives the outfit a bit of contradiction, which I love.

I never know what to expect with Elisa’s looks, which is what keeps me so addicted to following her style. She always throws out something playful. It’s evident in the way she paired this fair isle cashmere sweater she designed with a gold pleated skirt and colorful accessories.

Truly, Mary and I didn’t plan the whole plaid pants thing, but this just goes to show you how much fun this little series can be. She went for a cropped turtleneck to complement the high waisted, wide leg trousers. So modern prep with those hot pink shoes!

Omg so good!!! Love your writing Cort!
Awww thanks IGW!! We got this!!
This is SO FUN. What a way to show off everyone’s different style. Cortney, I adore how you explained your outfit planning process here and how you played with texture. it’s always impressive to see how you transition your style from look to look. Here, your white accessories are the monochromatic element that play off your sweater and it is SO GOOD. You’re making me want to go buy white shoes + bag + sunnies for winter! Can’t wait to see next month. Cheers!
Becca — love your comments! Thank you SO much for reaching and giving your feedback!! I’m so glad the push for white accessories has stuck hehe :). This was a big change for me — wearing rose, haha, guess who encouraged me to do it. So glad I did. Appreciate you following along and hopefully this can become a bigger effort as the months go on! xoxo
