“Favorite colors are: black, dark black, pitch black, pastel black, light black, faded black.”
If this quote defines your closet, and basically your life, then you’ll be thrilled to know that you’re not alone! As we’re heading into crisper temperatures and the neutrality of fall colors, you may want to opt for darker neutral shades and bring out the black stashed in your closet after those long summer months. The best thing about this color is that it goes with practically everything and is the easiest way to make chic and monochromatic ensembles. If you’re prepping for the cold or showing off for a night out, black has the versatility to pull off any look.
This Fashionista happens to wear black all day and everyday and shows us how to dress up a casual look on those warmer fall afternoons and cooler evenings. She’s sporting a flirty skater skirt (which could be paired with tights for cooler temps) and a classic long sleeve, off-the-shoulder top. I’d consider the long sleeve off-the-shoulder to be a great fall staple, letting you show off a little more skin before having to bundle up for a chilly winter.
My favorite piece in this all black ensemble has to be the woolly bomber jacket. This highlights the conventionality of the look for uncertain temperatures and an uncertain schedule for a busy college kid. The black iconic woolly bomber gives an alternative to autumn “sweater weather” classics. With the versatility of this outfit, this Fashionista is ready for anything a fall weekend on campus throws her way.
