Conventional wisdom touts that a spring wardrobe = lighter
colors. But not so fast. Black is
making a big appearance in the most unanticipated season. Don't get me wrong--pastels rock--but that's
for another post. Y'other brothers can't deny that it's in every decade
this season:
‘60s Mod:
· Bold prints on mini’s, graphic prints on pants and horizontal stripes on dresses are super mod
‘70s Hippie:
· Floral print or tie dye maxi’s,
ruffles, and the skinny harem pant make this very haute
‘80s Colorblock:
· Loose blouses, ponte knit shifts and the fresh look of the colorblock sandal are all dope
‘90s Grunge:
· Ripped skinnies, cropped sweatshirts and spring-weight
leather t-shirts and swing skirts are very now
‘00s Futurama:
· Pant suits with updates like sharp lines and stripes down the side of the leg rock
Baby definitely got black…and I cannot lie. Style on.
