Although I keep a decent amount of black in my wardrobe, I do try and create most of my post-worthy looks around color. Black feels so available and so easy that I'm constantly looking for more excitement within my own fashion world. So this outfit with a ratio of 3:1 being black, is kind of a big deal. I decided to go "all black" without literally ending up with a full-on robber's uniform. The next time you decide to grab for the same-old black-on-black-on-black, attempt to squeeze in charcoal grey, dark plum or deep teal somewhere. It could be one small piece of the ensemble like a hat, skirt or tights. It's fun to get in touch with your dark side a little.
