STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Blackout

Uncategorized

If you’re standing on the platform waiting for the train, you will see everyone on the other side in black. In a sea of black, add a little pop of color or mix with different textures. This Fashionista like a true New Yorker kept to that ideology and rocked an all black outfit, but to make her outfit more fun she added a gold bib necklace completed with her signature fire red glasses.

Alexander Wang’s A/W 2010 RTW collection consisted of all black outfits. But what made the collection to die for was the fun detail on the skirts and jackets. Even though the outfits were all black, the skirts and jackets were decked out in studs. Aside from adding a pop of color or small details, you can also just mix texture. If you’re rocking a black leather jacket pair it with a black chiffon or silk top. The mixture of texture and fabric will give it a more interesting touch while keeping the blackout style.

Hint: If you are into the blackout look, try this great jacket with a mix of velvet to play up the look.

If you like 90% of New York want to keep rocking the blackout, don’t go unnoticed. Do it in fabulously in different textures or add a piece of accessory to hint of personality.
