Black never goes out of style. I don’t care how often someone claims this colour or that colour is the “new black,” nothing can compete with this closet staple. A gothic hue that’s universally flattering, it can be sleek, sexy or badass and I’ve yet to meet a woman who doesn’t own at least one special LBD. I can admit to owning many. I’m not suggesting to dress all in black with matching black lips and nails. You’re not batman. But including black pieces in an outfit is a foolproof way to add instant sophistication to any look.
See below for more information on some of my current favourite items in this colour.
- Christian Louboutin “Belnodo” Bootie: An irresistible black suede bootie with signature red sole. A definite splurge but will remain in your wardrobe for years to come. For more information visit christianlouboutin.com

- Kate Spade Cooper Grand Strap Watch: A current obsession is quilting, whether it be the knees of pants, the elbows of a jacket or the strap of this watch. I love it. This watch is available in-store and online at katespade.com

Love these posts where you suggest ideas and products – I’m looking hard at that Tube Scarf and already love the BabyLips from another blog post!
Thanks KatDiddy!
