Black: Still Black



I've witnessed many times people have said that the color black has been replaced by another, simply because it's a new trend they're interested in. In magazines, or in shop windows, I'd see the words "Red is the new Black" or "Purple is the new Black" (or yellow, or blue, or turquoise, or...) but to me, black is still black and there would never be a 'new' black. 

Besides the fact that it's a neutral color that can be worn with multiple-color accessories or shoes, black clothing can also be worn as casual or formal, day- or eveningwear. From the iconic 'little black dress' to winter's black coat and tights, I really think it's a timeless factor that influences our everyday fashion, style and trend choices.

I've listed four stylish black garments you could wear day or night, to a friendly event or an exclusive occasion. Hope you like it!

  • Lace inset maxi-dress (I love maxi-dresses by the way!) | +AU$13 - RT Formal @ MRP
  • Cut-out lacy short dress | +AU$13 - RT Formal @ MRP
  • 'Keep Dreaming' playsuit | AU$39,95 - Factorie
  • 'Lenear Penelope' short dress | AU$29,95 - Factorie

(Note: MRP's prices were converted from ZAR to AUD and is not exactly, but more or less the same price as advertised. Factorie's prices were correct on their online store at the time of the publishing of this post.)

Have a nice day, lovelies! And remember - there will never be a new black.
