Tuesday Temptations: Black + white

Tuesday Temptations: Black and white



Black and white is a trend we'll be seeing a lot of this spring. And since I tend to gravitate towards this color combo anyway, I could be happier! So today I wanted to round up some of my favorite monochromatic pieces. You seriously can't go wrong with this look. It's so classic (think Chanel!) and pulled together.

To keep it interesting, here are some options on how to wear it:

1. Opt for bold, solid pieces for a color blocked look. This creates a perfectly updated mod feel and is perfect for a 9-5.
2. Incorporate prints (like the blouse I wore here) and pattern mix your little heart out! Stripes with dots or a damask print is such a fun, daring combo!
3. Wear one color from head to toe. I just ordered those wide leg trousers and can't wait to step out in an all white ensemble!
4. If black and white is a bit too blah for your taste, toss in a pop of color. Emerald or a bright neon would be perfect!

How do you plan to wear black and white?

XO,
Alison
