Basic Black Clothing Cautions

I notice that many of my customers love to wear black all of the time. I even catch myself wearing black a lot. Black clothing against the face may not be as flattering as you think! Colours that lift your natural skin tone are a better bet!

For casual wear, black is a good base. It is provides a good grounding for you to add different patterns and colours. Black can be a great choice for fall as well. Just add some colour with a vest or some funky pants or a skirt. 

For spring and summer, I encourage the use of more wonderful colours that are offered and available in this season. Black and white is a classic combination and I encourage this type of colour combo. If you still love to wear black, then choose patterns that include black and also have a pop of colour. 

If you are dressing up and going to a fancy event, a little black dress is a great choice for a base. However, consider pairing it with something that adds a punch of colour like a scarf, or a cardigan, or a cover up, or a long kimono type cardigan. 

At Simply Celebrate You, we have lots of little black dresses. blazers and pants that can be paired with accessories and other pieces that can add some colour variation to help you look and feel your very best!
