Black in Style: How to rock black all year round

Black is classic and always in style. The ultimate dramatic color, black is the perfect choice for gowns, mini dresses, jeans, and even t-shirts. But black often gets a bad wrap for warmer seasons, as I mentioned yesterday in the Tip of the Week.

Because it’s the darkest color, it seems, well, too dark for a bright summer color scheme. But it’s not! With the right accessories, black can be a great choice for summer.

Of course, black is a great color to wear in the fall and winter as well. Black gowns look great at formal winter events, including weddings. Don’t listen to the superstition, wearing black to a wedding isn’t bad luck!

Black boots are also a great fall and winter staple, as well as black coats and jackets. I know we don’t want to think about fall already (summer just started!) but when it does roll around, think black for your wardrobe staples and choose your pieces carefully!

Change Your Mind: Making the dress conform to your desires!

We all loved Transformers as kids (or had brothers who did), so we know the appeal of morphing. Changing your look is a great way to keep your style fresh. Changing your look doesn’t require an extensive wardrobe like Carrie Bradshaw’s! It just requires basic clothing that can be styled in different ways. The little black dress is a classic example!

The Plastic Island Flutter Sleeve Belted Dress is just such a little black dress. When worn off the shoulder with funky jewelry and cute sandals, the dress becomes a boho chic piece perfect for a casual dinner or shopping. But wear it on the shoulder with heels and classic jewelry and the Flutter Sleeve Belted Dress instantly becomes an elegant cocktail outfit. Or wear it off the shoulder with bright, streamlined heels and accessories for a colorful and wedding worthy summer ensemble.
