STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: All-Black Everything

July 1st, 2015 at 2:00am

I am sure you have heard the phrase “_______ is the new black”. This phrase is so popular because, well, black is classic. From Audrey Hepburn to Anna Wintour, these fashion icons have worn an all-black outfit at some point or another. Not only is the color chic and suitable for any occasion, it is slimming as well. You can pair black with any other accent color, and this is why I also frequent wearing it in 75 percent of my outfits.

This Fashionista decided spice up her all-black outfit with a small, brown cross-body bag and her absolutely adorable woven flats. I love how she kept her ensemble palette neutral. The Fashionista mentioned that she was out to go have dinner with her friends and boyfriend, and she executed the go out casual look.

Her ensemble features a sleek top paired with high-waisted pin-up styled shorts and to keep her warm when the temperature drops at night, a simple and somewhat sheer kimono.

In addition to this Fashionista’s outfit, I immediately noticed her because of her RAD hair. During the summer months it is very popular to go lighter, which I do religiously each summer. I recommend that if you want to switch up your look to go to your hair stylist and request to go ombré. By having your hair darker on top and lighter on the bottom, your face is brightened and your tan looks darker.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “When in doubt, wear black. It’s timeless and flattering.”
