Ready for So Much Black!

Sep 18, 2013 | Fashion

Slimming, effortlessly paired with (almost) anything, and an automatic boost in chic points– black is a wardrobe no-brainer and oh so easy to love.  When it comes to black, I love combining multiple textures and layers (I have a similar post, called Black on Black…or something like that..).  Hard metal, airy knit, soft suede/”fur” and a slub weave metallic blend– the enjoyable texture component to the varying shapes of the boxy vest, flowy cardi, and skin tight leggings.  Throw it all together.

**See bottom of post for what I’m wearing and where you can find similar items.

(1) Suede vest- Ralph Lauren; (2) Cardi- A store through Amazon called Allegra K (free shipping…but from China… super exciting when it arrives though!); (3) Tweed, collar-tipped t-shirt- ebay; (4) boots – consignment (adorablee Colorado boutique I came across); (5) leggings- just your average black pair, but lined with glorious fleece.

Similar:

(1) Forever21; and ASOS (way longer, but soo much fun)

(2) Allegra K

(3) ASOS sells these cute collar tips if you’re into DIY…or check out ebay’s selection- loving this pair; here’s a swoon-worthy collar-tipped shirt from ASOS; and here’s the shirt I bought from ebay (it’s a legit addiction.  Help!)

(4) H&M

(5) Amazon (SK Hat Shop)
