Monochromatic Chic: Part 3

Hi babe's

Hope you checked out part: l & ll of my monochromatic chic series and rocked it. 

This is part: lll 

On the more casual side of life:

Why black + white is always right?!? 

Maybe you prefer not to think about your clothes or maybe you are all about minimalist neutrals, but for some women colour simply isn't that appealing. If that describes you to the T there's a chance that black and white outfits make up the bulk of your wardrobe. If this is the case you already know that the power of black and white pieces are quite strong. There's nothing more chic than pairing the new shades together and nothing more foolproof. In fact it's almost not possible to look bad in black and white. 

Here's a few more of my absolute fav monochrome looks for a more casual scene.

Outfit no.1: Street Gear

Crop tops don't have to be skintight! The bigger the better the crop and they tend to decrease any induced nervousness by the trend. Since the hem of your top is cut short, why not add height to the waist of your bottoms so only a coy glimpse of skin is on display.

Step out in something a little more urban, with a cropped t-shirt, ripped black skinnys & high-tops. Add some accessories to glam it up and your ready to go.

Outfit no.2 : The Biker Chick

There's a few pieces of outerwear that has reached grail status to such a degree as the leather jacket. First worn by army pilots and soon co-opted by socialites and movie stars in the first half of the 20th century, the leather jacket signifies cool. 
By now we all know that it works well with the most basic and classic wardrobe staples like black pants and jeans.

But how about trying yours with a tee length dress and sneakers, something a little different.
I wanted to be adventurous with this outfit but at the same time be comfortable and it provides both. I'm an absolute fan of dresses and sneakers it just goes so well together.

I've chosen to add some bling to the ensemble to give it an edgy look, you can go with either gold or silver pieces. One of  the reasons why I love this outfit is cause its super simple to change it into a night look, simply slip on a pair of heels and your good to go.
