You know those mornings when you try on a million outfits and hate how every single one of them looks? Yeah, me too. For some reason nothing fits right or nothing matches and you’re beginning to give up hope. Fear not, Fashionistas and Fashionistos, for I have a bit of advice for you (that you probably already know): when in doubt, wear all black.
When I saw this Fashionista walking down the street, I knew she was a girl after my own heart. After all, what New Yorker doesn’t have a wardrobe that consists of mainly black clothes, right? What’s cool about this outfit is that, although she is dressed head to toe in black, it still comes off as cool and summery.
For starters, this slouchy T-shirt is perfect. It’s loose enough to show off the perfect amount of her striped bralette and can even be tied at the bottom for a little added flair. Her shorts are absolute summer essentials, a cool and edgy take on the very common denim daisy dukes, and her black leather bag is the perfect accessory to complete this New York girl’s summer outfit.
So, if you’re having one of those dreadful mornings where you’re thinking about burning everything in your closet and starting from scratch (if you could just win the lottery), think again. An all black outfit has you covered: it’s flattering, easy and will make you look instantly cooler.
What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “If it comes in black, buy it in black. You really can’t go wrong.”
