Black is the new black

Black on black is so…
sophisticated, glamorous, versatile, Kardashian-esque.

I know you’re soooo surprised to see my black ankle boots again.  I can’t help it.  I’m in love with them.

And I’ve started watching Hallmark Christmas movies.  {It’s not too early, is it?}  One character inspired me to do the part in the middle thing.  I’ve contemplated it before but never taken the leap.  But yesterday I just… bam, decided that was the day to go for it.  I really liked how it gave my hair a different look and took all of 3.4 seconds.  That’s my kinda change-up.

Are you ever inspired by movie characters?  Or something else totally random?  Oh, come on… tell me it’s not just me!

{I realize mine’s not truly a middle part; more of a “middle-ish” part.  But it’s new for me!}

Do you ever wear a solid color?  I’ve done white and denim.

    Claire, love the middle part and love black. Black never goes out, goes with anything and everything and looks great on everyone. So I have two thirds black in in my closet. It may be all black or black and a color, but as I said it goes with everything and makes one look smaller which is a plus. Love those shoes too, Going with Thursday Thankfulness I am thankful for black! Keep up the good work and inspiring us all, young and old!

    • Grandmother! I hadn’t heard from you in a few days! Thanks for the words of encouragement. I’ve actually been meaning to do this post forever but just haven’t gotten around to it. I love to wear solid black.

  • This outfit and the middle-ish (hehe) part are totally working for you! And YES! Sometimes I pause shows/movies just so I can go try out a look they inspired me to do hah! Seriously loving those booties!

    • You do?? You’re one step ahead of me! Haha. I always just finish watching and then attempt it. I’m not sure why it has taken me so long to try this middle-ish part.

  • You really can’t go wrong with an all black ensemble and statement necklace!! Love the bag – such a great tote and I’m sure you fit a ton in there!!

    • Right? Solid black is so effortless yet chic. And yes, the tote is one of my favorites. I bought it a year ago and carried it nonstop and then it found its way to the back of my closet for some reason. And now I found it again so it feels brand new!!

  • I love the all-black look. Your hair looks great, too! Those black ankle boots are adorable-I would wear them all the time too. :)

    • Thanks! I think I’ve featured them in like 95% of fashion posts in the last two months but they’re just so versatile. And warm. It’s almost like I can’t put an outfit together without them!
