Some ruffle on ruffle today… but I thought this was a great example of pattern play in the same color category. I love how there’s a lot happening in this look, yet because it’s only a combination of two classic colors, it doesn’t feel too overwhelming.

Oddly enough there was a period of time that I didn’t like wearing black and white together… even when it came to styling my home. Now I’m the total opposite, I can’t get enough! B&W is always classic and chic, from wearing it to MacKenzie-Childs Courtly Check and Oreos… gimme it ALL.  I even find myself gravitating toward white houses with black trim, doors, etc. Clearly there’s a pattern here –

I think this top would look great with black skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans (both on sale!) and the skirt would be great with a classic crop top or bodysuit (on sale!). Always look for versatility when snagging new pieces!

Do you love wearing black and white together? If you’re a labrador owner like me… you might have to limit the black but hey – I do have a lint roller in every room so there’s that!
