The Autumn/Winter Fashion Week early this year showcased a lot of black and white in the runway.It is not a trend but a fashion which is eternal.A fashion glorified by the likes of Chanel,Dior,Ralph Lauren,etc.To those who don’t know, the “Little Black dress” was created by Chanel.It is the safest bet one can take but does that mean it has to be boring.Definitely not.
Let us look at the top Black/White looks that can be worn by just about anybody and yet look like a diva.
1.The Pant- Suit
Angelina Jolie wore it to the Oscars.Selena Gomez wore it to the premier of Spring breakers.Pant suit is no longer just for men but a power dressing apparel for women of today.
You don’t need an expensive matching pant suit.Be creative and pair tops of different colours and cuts with your pants.Wear it with a bright red lipstick,a silver choker or a pair of contrasting heels.There are many ways to accessorise and make yourself shine in the garb of a pant and suit.
Just make sure, you focus on the fitting.If your fitting is not right, a pant suit can break you.
2. The striped Maxi dress
Casual and comfy is what defines a striped maxi dress.The perfect garment to a brunch or a shopping spree.Get your girls and rock the striped maxi dress.Wear it with slippers or flats and a woven white hand bag.
The best part about these striped maxi dresses are that you an find tons of them and very cheap in shops like Nordstrom Rack, Forever 21, Zara or even your local blogshop.
3. The One shoulder black and white dress
The one shoulder dress never goes out of fashion and if it is in black and white, it couldn’t look more classier.Wear it to any party, club or dinner and you will surely standout.Tie your hair up and put it back to show off your shoulders and wear chunky big earrings and it will give you the perfect evening look.
4. The Black Pencil Skirt + White top
How we love the pencil skirt.Even better if it is in leather.The black leather pencil skirt is a catching trend.Pair it up with a crop top or even a full sleeve tee.Pencil skirts gives you a variety of option to mix and match.Black and white combination will even look better if you wear a red or silver belt on it.Not only does it keep your skirt in place and give you a tighter shape but also makes you stand apart from otherwise just wearing a white shirt and black skirt.
Once again, accessorize the look to be different.
5. The Black and White Polka dot skirt
Go retro.Go Polka dots.Polka dot skirts are the cutest thing ever.Pair it up with a monochrome top and you are set to go.Do not mix designs.So if you are wearing a polka dotted skirt, don’t wear a stripe t-shirt.Go for bold and one coloured top.
