When in Doubt Wear Black (And White)!

As much as I love color in my wardrobe, I can never get enough of black and white outfits! During the recent spring clean-up I realized I have a number of black and white dresses and blouses/skirts! This little number was hanging quietly in the closet among the colorful pieces, its simplicity reminding me why I reach for a black and white outfit when I really have no idea what to wear! This dress actually is made by the strips of printed satin cloth sewn into a net like gauge, and those strips create their own pattern! And because of that, no two dresses look the same! Clever- isn't it?




If you like this look, get a black and white print dress here -

    Hi sweetie! Thanks so much for your super nice comment on my blog once again! :) I love this dress on you and love your necklace with it! I am a sucker for black and white and will buy black and white over color any day. Because of this, I have been frantically trying to slowly add color to my wardrobe! Ha ha! Hope all is well and have a great night! xo

    I like the optical illusion of the strips and how they get wider on the skirt than the bodice. I find that you can combine color with black and white fairly easily.

    EEEEEEEP!
    so beautiful! Oh my gosh - thats what im talking about! Vintage styled cut and patterns do a genius number for any woman's figure! the necklace is a great touch - brings a little edge, but i love how the print just is an instant classic :D

    What a great black and white dress! Years ago, I always loved to see what white house black market offered in my favorite classic colour scheme... Now they've somewhat changed the direction of their lines! Hope the photographer took you out for a nice dinner :)
