black and white

there are many times i want an uncomplicated look to match a busy day. no muss. no fuss. on those days i seem to reach for a color scheme to match my no-nonsense attitude. and what could be more simple than black and white? i have on a pair of wide-leg trousers that are perfect for hiding a multitude of sins, a tailored blouse that keeps the overall look structured, and a fun cardi that can keep me warm if need be, but also gives the outfit a little punch. white shoes and purse, and i have a simple, but chic outfit. sometime, it’s just that easy.
