How To Inject Flair Into Your Black And White Wardrobe
1. Get playful with optical prints that lend vibrant exuberance
custom

Bold patterns create a stunning visual effect, whether it’s a black and white checks or asymmetrical lines across the whole blouse. If you’re unsure about incorporating prints into your ensemble, start small — a pair of shorts, handbag or a black-and-white belt.

Tip : You can also keep it dynamic with matching accessories that are just as bold.

Don’t be afraid to amp up the strict colour codes with a dash of colour. It creates visual interest and brightens up an otherwise safe combo.

3. Do it right with rich fabrics and gold accents.
custom

Once you’ve mastered the game of adding colour to your ensemble, consider mixing up your clothes with different types of fabrics. A silk blouse with black denim jeans or a knit sweater with satin skirt. You can also get fancy and break out the bling for some major shine.
