Fashion and Interiors: Black and White

January 11, 2012
Black and white images evoke so many thoughts: classic movies full of Hollywood glamour, formal dinners at posh restaurants, and a professional look that goes from day to night.
Modern renderings of black and white still bring up similar thoughts of classic and chic style. Ā But black and white is now combined with different prints, textures, and shapes. Ā The combination is hopelessly chic while still remaining fun.My black and white uniform is my cream and black lace tank under a black jacket paired with a black pencil skirt. Ā  I’d also love, love LOVE a black chaise lounge with sleek accents or even the carved black table in the second picture!What black and white touches do you like?

    I have about a half a dozen black and white striped tops that I just can’t get enough of. I wear them with skinny jeans, flats and a combination of colorful accessories. I’ve been going back to black and white photography lately as well.

    I so enjoy black and white stripes on little ones. My sweet little one is adorable in a onesie with stripes, with a navy sweater and dark jeans. Too cute for words.

    OK….I am incredibly envious that you are AGAIN at the airport!!! I used to work in consulting and traveled 100% for my job…..and I loved it! I love being in a different city, meeting different people, working on new projects all the time. I miss my life on the road! I also love black and white home decor, I hope to one day have a zebra skin floor covering…faux is fine šŸ˜‰
