Black + White

there’s something so classic and effortless about an outfit made up of black and white (with a splash of grey!). starting with a basic palette of those two colors, you can easily add some interest by mixing textures, like the ribbing on the sweater with the lace detail layered underneath or the suede on the booties and the leather on the sleeves. finished off with (necessary) gloves, a cool necklace, and a structured bag, this outfit can be worn for so many different occasions. in my case, it was thrown together, walked around my neighborhood, photographed in a moderately questionable alley, and then quickly traded for yoga pants and a tee. but, ya know, now i have a great outfit in my arsenal for a future occasion that calls for black and white with a feminine, city-girl feel. 

also, white pants can totally be worn after labor day.
