  • Black and  white office  wear

    Black and white office wear

    FOR some people, black and white combination is known to be good for spring, but for others, it is a choice that can be used all year round.

    While it is almost a wrong choice to wear white shoes when the weather gets cold, you will find some of the combinations of black and white quite traditionally pleasing for office wear. Contrasting is a style that is quite common when it comes to making choices between black and white. Without a keen eye on fashionable choices and combinations, it can prove a difficult task to select a few outfits with just black and white without ending up boring and repetitive. So, how can you look great and fresh every other day with black and white clothing in the office?

    Black and white suit with black shoes

    Almost no one can forget the impression created by a white suit. It can be coupled with a black top and black shoes to make a dramatic statement. The advantage with this suit is that it is all round and you can use its pristine background to show off some coloured shirts and blouses such as orange, red green and even prints and stripes of any hue. You can also choose to combine this with black accessories, especially during the cold season. For spring, try on some black patent leather shoes, while in summer, you could try some strappy patent leather sandals, black in colour, if your dress or suit has a bold print with black.

    Combinations with jackets

    With black and white, it is also possible to adapt well for the weather using, some additional accessories. A black jacket can be worn on both black and white pants and black and white dresses for the office provided you choose a good fit for your body size. You can opt for a black bottom and a white top combo that can be accessorised by almost any colour of a jacket. This will look not only uptown, but also very comfortable for the office, especially when you wear it with a Chanel-type collarless jacket that is trimmed with some white braids or a white banding on the neckline and front edges.

    For a black and white style, you can find almost anything you want, from stylish gowns, pants, sandals, shoes to any kind of accessories that will work perfectly for your choice of dress. To look unique and coming with a fresh style all the time, try to accessorize your dresses and suits in a different way each time.

  • Little White Dresses

    Little White Dresses

    WHAT’S hotter this season than a little white dress? This is not my first trend alert for the little white dress. But it really is a trend for this season, and if you are in any doubt, please take a look at the fashionistas who have successfully worn a little white dress (LWD) in the past months, starting with my favourite, Hadiza Okoya, in her well-structured look for her 25th birthday.

    Imani Swank also wore a nice piece. She did it pretty much with less accessories too.

    Black and white is huge this season!

    DESPITE the array of colourful designs on the fashion scene, black and white has been one of the biggest trends on the red carpet this season. Whether it is colourful or subtle, there are plenty of ladies who love this look. Black and white dress is a fashion trend that you wouldn’t want to miss, it is classy and sexy!

    Since the beginning of the second quarter of this year, the whole world has hopped on board the black and white madness train! Pants, shorts, tops, shirts, full-on dresses, all made of black and white! Sometimes it is the skirt or parts of the sleeve or perfectly colour of the two.

    How to rock the look

    IT might be the most tried-and-true colour combination, but the sharp punch of ebony and ivory is ever modern. Turn formality on its head in graphically-minded pieces. Or use it to give geometric motifs new class. The perfect accessory: an elegant touch of silver.
