Black and White with a Splash of Color


Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog!

This week I chose two outfits in black and white,
 livened up with a splash of color
If you have been here before, you know I am a big fan of bright color!

My first outfit is separates, a white lightweight 3/4 sleeve pullover sweater
with a tiny tone on tone embroidered polka dot pattern
Paired with a seldom worn unusual wrap skirt in black, white and grey stripes




I made this casual outfit fun with accessories 
Wearing a turquoise vintage scarf as an impromptu necklace
and a black and white polka dot headband
For jewelry, a shiny silver tone hinged bracelet 
and faceted dome stud earrings


Carrying a turquoise square fold over flap clutch
for another pop of color


White perforated slip on sneakers to complete this fun spring look!



Another black and white outfit with a pop of bright pink this time
White short sleeve twill jacket with safari details
worn with a black and white print pleated midi shirt
I wore this skirt styled differently on the blog back in January
in a post about layering with a blazer 





I just noticed I'm wearing polka dots in both of these outfits-
It's such a mood lifting print!
Some pops of pink with a bright pink and white polka dotted scarf
and a fuchsia clutch bag


For jewelry, a chunky gold tone chain link bracelet and chain drop earrings


I have been wearing these black and tan toe cap sling backs
quite a bit in the past few months
The are very comfortable, and are a versatile classic style




An example of black and white with a splash of color from 2018
It is a formula I reach for often!

Turquoise with black and white


Some pops of color in the garden
the tulips are still blooming beautifully! 💐 


Hope you all have a wonderful week!

  10. Ooh I love adding pops of colour to outfits with my bags so I'm loving these outfits (especially the first two!) the coordination with the scarves and bags is just perfect and a great way to add more colour to an outfit! :)
