How to Wear Only Black and White Womens Clothing

Wear only black and white womens clothing? Why not? It's a classic combination, looks good in any season and never goes out of style. Simplify your wardrobe, and make these colors your special fashion signature. There's even a popular store that only sells black and white womens clothing.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Shop your closet first. You probably already have lots of black and white womens clothing, as well as the colors that cluster around them. Gray, cream and silver will all flow well with your new signature look.

2. Make sure you have a beautifully tailored black suit, with a classic blazer, a straight knee-length skirt and well-fitting pants. Buy the suite in a fabric that will work all year. For summer, buy a pair of tailored white pants you can dress up or down. Throw in a white denim skirt and white linen shorts.

3. Collect other pieces when you can afford them. Go for quality, not quantity when it comes to black and white womens clothing. If you are really watching your budget, remember that you can get away with inexpensive black items, but cheap white pieces show every flaw. Don't forget consignment shops and thrift stores. You can pick up some designer duds at bargain prices, not to mention some incredible handbags and other accessories.

4. Add pops of color with your accessories. For occasions when you can relax your look a little a hot pink bag and matching flats will look super with either a black or white sheath dress. Remember Sarah Palin's beautiful black suit paired with red high heels? Jewelry in bright colors will be a fun addition to a short white summer dress.

5. Celebrate when you realize how easy it is to travel with a wardrobe of only black and white womens clothing. Everything goes with everything else!

Tips & Warnings

• Black is easy to dress up for parties. Just exchange the daytime shoes for strappy sandals, don some sparkly chandelier earrings and grab a small silver evening bag. Your go-to little black dress is suddenly evening attire.
• Don't set rules in stone for yourself. If you see something in another color that you absolutely love, get it.
