The Winner is Black....

Let me be the first to say that black is not my default color. I love color!!! I love pink(of course), turquoise, kelly green and the list could go on and on for days. Blame it on my Mother who put me in bright colors for most of my childhood, or blame it on my southern roots and our love for all things bright.

In November, my friend Kari, had an engagement party and requested that everyone wear black. This sent me into a tail spin of shopping and noticing that black is not my default color! So for most of November and December I bought black everything. One of the outfits that stands out in my mind,  was from my trip to Miami this month. It was a black blazer that I found at Lane Bryant for $35.00, a sequin skirt from Evans, and my favorite black BEBE pumps. It was a comfortable outfit, and I felt fabulous in it!!! I was hesitant about the blazer when I first purchased but it has fast become on my favorite wardrobe staples. I now realize that I must  keep more black staples in my closet at all times!!!
