Black & White Dressing

Black and White

People often confuse a black and white outfit as monochrome. The term monochrome actually means one tone and tonal dressing is another stylish option for an outfit. To wear a tonal outfit is often the easiest way to look styled and with the rainbow of colours available on the high street at the moment it can also be a fun way to dress. This blog however is focussed on black and white outfits, which in my view, is one of the simplest and stylish looks you can put together. A great way to kick start your New Year fashion story with a timeless look.

Breton stripes in jersey and knits are a good starting point and pairing these with denim is a simple and stylish combination, however they also look great with faux leather trousers or a black tailored trouser or leggings. A textured, boucle jacket is a lovely layering option and gives you a Chanel style finish to your outfit. You could pick black or white and not combine the two and create an all-white outfit or an all-black outfit. Here are some ideas to inspire your January wardrobe, they are all classic pieces or wardrobe staples, which will stand the test of time.
