Hey guys! 1996 here. I don’t know what you were doing at the exact moment this picture was being taken, but I know I was probably skipping out of Calculus, on my way to 7-11, listening to Weezer in my friend’s older brother’s Volvo.
What I was not doing was chilling in a grey velour-upholstered limousine in a flirty plaid casual blazer and sensible business pumps looking like a cheerful, redheaded, oval-glasses-wearing BOSS.
The irony is that this looks suspiciously like Vancouver out the window there so who knows, maybe that’s us in the car.
I AM SO HAPPY THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS TIME, WITH BETTER BLAZERS.
No one appreciates a pop of color in one’s outfits - especially business women - then myself. However, black and white definitely has its place. There is no classier or classic color combo then plain black and white.
With that said, there are still plenty of fashion risks to be taken in timeless black and white colors. Here are five black and white statement pieces to add to your fall wardrobe:
2)Jacquard-weave skirt from H&M - I actually tried this on in the store. I didn’t end up buying it but it is definitely on my watch list. Buyer Beware! This skirt runs extremely small. I had to go 4 sizes up!!
4)Houndstooth Sweater from The Limited - a woman at my office wore a similar sweater to work today and I noticed her from across the hallway. That’s how much of an eye-catcher this piece is.
Loving how this pearl belt with Swarovski crystals really brings my work #ootd together! This belt is from my newly launched Meredith May Collection - belts to accessorize, belts to empower!
Modern. Edgy. Cool. X marks the spot with this teal and purple snake skin printed belt. Shop @ meredithmaycollection.weebly.com #style #fashion #instastyle #instadaily #fashiondesigner
