BlackOut

I have been embracing lots of fun colors lately...purple, red, mint. I have been loving the burst of color, but sometimes you want to turn to old faithful...all black. My tip for a rich all black look is layering with different fabrications and textures. Below I started with a silk jersey, layered with leather and added a black suede shoe to polish it off.  I felt super chic, hope you agree and find some outfit inspiration:) 

 Black Maxi c/o Von Vonni available here, Leather Vest Rachel Zoe no longer available, Bag Givenchy available here, Bracelets c/o Lydell available here and Podium Boutique, Shoes (old) Calvin Klein.

I feel the same way. I love color, but sometimes it's nice to go back to neutrals. The dress is gorgeous as well as those heels! Heather

I'm amazed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that's
both educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that too few people are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy I stumbled across this in my hunt for something regarding this.
