When in doubt: throw on an all black outfit. There’s no denying how effortlessly chic an all black outfit is, and when it’s made up of timeless wardrobe essentials…well, you’ll find yourself gravitating to it even when you swear you have “nothing to wear.”
I’m a BIG fan of any versatile outfit that can take me from daytime meetings to drinks after hours. Case in point with this all black outfit…I can run around during the day in comfort in my favorite pair of white loafers (seen here and here). I’ve literally ran in these loafers through the airport when Kat and I almost missed our flight to Caneel Bay. But on a busy day, I can bring along my patent leather pumps to slip on as we make our way to happy hour. I’ve mentioned this before, but I always stick to patent leather for a timeless black pump because patent leather won’t scuff as easily as soft leather or suede, making them a smart wardrobe staple. And this pair won’t break the bank as quickly as, say, a pair of Manolos. Though I am a BIG fan of Manolos.
By now you’ll recognize my beloved leather jacket, and don’t worry it’s still one of my most valued items in my closet (and it just gets better with age!). The jacket quickly evens out the fancy feeling my tasseled top brings making everything not too fussy. I’m also wearing my go-to classic black pants that go with just about everything in my closet all year around. The pop of “color” to my all black outfit today…well, it’s another neutral which is a-okay with me. My cross-body bag in supple camel is a definite favorite in my closet these days; a bag which I can easily hold or throw over my shoulder as I meet and greet with drink in-hand. Truly, MKR
All black is such a great go to. That fringe is spot on.
