Black and white is a big fashion trend now and for spring. I love the clean, fresh look of black and white. It is so uncomplicated after a season of color and bling.

ReplyDeleteLove, love, love black and white! Thanks for inspiring me to remain with my faves for spring and summer instead of falling for all the bright spring colors that will invade the stores soon. I buy some items in those colors and then they sit in my closet all summer while I wear black and white. Love your blog....first one I go to every day!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the kind words which are a great inspiration.
