Black and white combos have been a go-to outfit of choice for decades, and can still be spotted daily when walking around campus. This pairing is just as easy and famous as the red lip and simple eye makeup pairing. I have always loved this look, but recently I’ve been extremely inspired by Kendall Jenner’s use of black and white. Whether it’s sporting a black and white jumpsuit at the British Fashion Awards, or killing her street style game with black skinny jeans, booties and leather jacket with a white T-shirt, Jenner rocks this look.
Jenner isn’t the only one rocking this combo. This Fashionista has brought the feminine side of black and white to her outfit. She wears a simple white T-shirt tucked into a flowy black skirt, and adds sleek black sandals to the look. These three main items are on the simple side, but that gives this Fashionista the chance to add some killer accessories. Her fun, floppy black and white hat gives me flashbacks to Holly Golightly’s fabulous hat in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and who wouldn’t want that? The answer is no one.
With an outfit that sports only two basic colors, there’s a need for either a colored lip or accessories. This Fashionista chose accessories. Her bangles and watch don’t stray too far from the color palette with silver and light blue, but her clutch brings a fun pop of color! This fabulous clutch, which looks like the cover of Vogue, is the perfect accessory for the black and white combo because it’s fun, bright and chic! This Fashionista is ready to take on Jenner in a battle for the black and white combo crown.
