Opposites Attract

A black and white outfit is a classic style that will always be on trend. It seems like no matter the season, this timeless color combination will always be prevalent. And while black & white are very minimalist, it creates such a chic, sophisticated type of look. Like any color combination, there are an endless amount of possibilities. That’s one of the reasons why this will never go out of style. There’s always a way to reinvent and revamp with new patterns, prints and designs.

For this look, I decided to keep it more on the simple side. I felt as though it really didn’t need many embellishments or frills. This windowpane sweater skirt was the perfect base because it provided an eye-catching, geometric print. Since black and white are on the complete opposite side of the color wheel, when you put them together, it really stands out. We are still pretty warm here in Los Angeles so I opted for a high neck, sleeveless bodysuit to pair with the skirt. Once I put these two garments together, I felt like it still needed something else. Although I was going to simple, it was coming across as a little too simple. The solution? This gold metal plated belt from Eloquii! This belt is a must in your wardrobe. You can use it for just about any style top and it instantly ramps up your look. With that, my outfit was complete and so chic (if I do say so myself!).
