Truth be told, I love the color black. Most of my wardrobe consists of black. A couple of years ago I did expanded my wardrobe to include brighter colors for the summer/spring and love that look as well. But my first instinct is to always grab a garment in black.
Let's discuss . . . When wearing the color black, it associates with mourning, magic power, evil, sexiness and elegance. This color is powerful! Black is a classic color that will continue to inspire for generations. You can't go wrong when wearing or designing with the color black. Wouldn't you agree?
I think everyone should own a few key pieces of black apparel to add to their wardrobe. A classic black coat, a tailored blazer, a skirt, trouser pants, black pumps or flats. These pieces are universal and can compliment any outfit. You can always expand your collection with a great handbag (not too trendy), along with other apparel and accessories.
When you look at architectural design, some classic elements you'll find are black wrought iron gates, or fencing, black front door or black shutters (depending on the style of your home).
And let's not forget black and white photographs or artwork. This has been around for-ev-er! Creating/adding this look to your space, adds character and looks great with any neutral space.
