How to Wear All Black

January 25, 2017

I love an all black look.ย Any time I want to add some edge or when I don’t know what to wear, I opt for all black. Below I am sharing my two easy tips for making it work. I wore this look to the doctor and for a couple errands the other day. My cold shoulder ruffle topย (only $13!!) is perfect for casual days with fun coated denimย (under $100) and statement yet comfy velvet sneakers (only $70).

How to wear all black:

  1. Mix Textures – whether chunky knits, silk, denim, leather, or coated denim like I opted for, mixing textures visually breaks up the look even though it is monochrome.
  2. Add a colored accessory – By pairing a colored accessory with an all black look, it keeps it from feeling too dark. Think a suede moto jacket, a neutral scarf, a colored bag, or a fun shoe like I selected. Your color doesn’t have to be bright either. I love adding another neutral like a grey or tan.

    Those coated jeans are awesome! Do you find they attract a lot of fluff? I’ve always found that with the pairs I’ve tried, but would really like to find a pair that doesn’t! The monochrome black outfit really lets your velvet shoes shine! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead of you ๐Ÿ™‚

    Love the how the black brings out the colour of your trainers. It’s an effortless style but you still look way too good for the doctors! Hope he gave you a prescription cos you look ??? can’t believe the cold shoulder jumper is only โ‚ฌ13 too! Bargain!

    Loving how you styled all black. The top adds the perfect feminine touch to soften the look. Also those sneaks are amazing!
