Trends of autumn - Chapter 4: Back to balck and white + OOTD


TRENDS OF AUTUMN 

Chapter 4

Going back to Black and White

Skirt: H&M
Jumper: Forever21
Shoes: Blanco


    Hey hey everyone. Today's post is the fourth installment to the Trends of Autumn posts, combined with an OOTD. One of the most timeless trends in fashion is the combination of black and white. There is nothing classier than the monochromatic style which returned in the catwalks this fall (if it ever left). The  can be seen from high fashion brands such as Narciso Rodriguez and J Mendel to high street brands such as Topshop and Forever21. One of the statement pieces of Fall/Winter 2013 is the hooudstooth jumpers and skirts. The dynamic duo is such a strong choice in an outfit that all that needs is a pair of red shoes or any color shoes really to just complete it by creating a beautiful contrast. Easy to style, elegant and feminine, black and white is rightfully one of the hottest trends of this season. 
   Inspired by this Coco Chanel like trend, i decided to create a more casual and simple ootd. Therefore  I paired a black skater skirt I got from H&M with a lovely white jumper I got from Forever21. The jumper althought it might not be eausy to see has also a lovely aztec-like abstarct print and texture, which gives more dimension to the blouze. The reason I chose for the top to be white, is the fact that a top in a bright color gives glow and light to the face and compliments it more. To finish of the outfit, i chose a pair of faux leather boots with straps from Blanco, because they are my favorite everyday choice when it comes to shoes, plus they make the outfit a bit more masculine, instead of pairing it with some ballerinas which would make it more girly. This outfit is perfect for everyday and if you want to spice it up a bit you can always add some accessories preferably in gold color but not too many, as it is supposed to be simple. What do you guys think of the monochronatic trend? Are you ready to jump on the black and white train? 

Till next time take care dolls ;) xxx

  1. Hi Vicky! Black & white is one of my favourites, because there is not much room to end up with an unmatchable outfit and I also believe it is very chic. I often wear black & white are work (possibly black dress with white shirt below,or classic penciil black dress with top as you recommend) and I usually combine the outfit with orange high heels
