Black or White


What I Wore

Sweater - J Crew/Camisole - TJMaxx/Mint Jeans - (Thrifted)
Shoes - Tom's/Scarf - (Thrifted)


As much as I love gorgeous color, whether it be bold red and vibrant blue or deep burgundy and vibrant yellow, I think I will always favor classic black and crisp white.  When I look in my closet or walk into a store, I find myself reaching for black or white.  Now, don't get me wrong, I don't always end up wearing or buying only the black or the white, but sometimes I end up with one of those colors in addition to others.  So, even though I am excited about the Pantone color pick being Emerald Green (because Emerald Green really is a beautiful color), I was glad to hear that black and white is also a hot trend (has it ever been out really?!).  It made me extra happy that I had recently added a couple of new black and white sweaters to my arsenal (not that I was doing it for the trend - I just loved the sweaters!).  Oh, and don't get me started on how happy I am that "FLATS" are going to be a big trend!  What about you, is there a color that you just tend to gravitate towards, or are you more of a "any color goes, anytime, anywhere" kind of person?

  5. I tend to be a bright color girl: fuchsia, purple, bright blue. But I do have four dresses in four different black and white patterns. :P The combo is a classically good one!
