Black is Always in Style

Sometimes you just have to go with the old standby – black. It always looks professional, you can dress it up or down and it goes with just about anything. In fact, when I got married I asked my bridesmaids to wear a black dress. They got to choose whatever they wanted. I knew that black dresses accentuated with lavender shawls (my gift to them) would look incredibly classy.
So when I don’t know what to wear I pull out my black pants and pair them with a fun top.
Black may not be the trendiest thing on the planet, but it’s always in style.
But what about those trendier items? Do you want to see what they look like in the real world? Or maybe you just want to see how to jazz up a pair of black pants in other ways. Well, now’s your chance!

I’ve had all of these clothing pieces in my closet for a long time. I keep wavering on whether or not to keep the cardigan and then it keeps staying. 
Pairing the fancy sequined skirt with a neutral colored cardigan and nude heels helps keep it from being too bling-y or overwhelming.
The fact that I paired two pieces that could be considered slightly casual but added heels and a blazer makes my outfit work appropriate without being traditional.
Ever since I bought this tie-neck top I have been wanting to pair it with these pants. 
Love this idea! Hope you get a lot of fun style questions!

Thanks! It should be fun and useful for people who choose to participate.
I like the black bridesmaids dresses! And that they got to pick their style. I wonder what my sister will pick for us. Not related, but I am going to have to work hard on not getting a funky tan next summer. Assuming they get married then.
I don’t know if any of them ever got to wear their dresses again, but I wanted them to take the chance to get a little black dress in their closet!
I have that cardigan in pretty much every color from Nordstrom Rack. I LOVE it.
I keep meaning to go back and get it in a bunch of colors, too. It really is the perfect cardigan.
Hi! A few weeks ago I stumbled into your site and I loved the ruffled teal tank top. Today I walked into a random boutique and found it, here in my country, El Salvador! What are the odds?! And it’s Ann Taylor. By the way it looks great with almost any color: black, beige, dark denim, white…It’s the perfect top.
That’s awesome that you found the same top!! It must have been meant to be.
