How to Wear the Black and White Trend This Fall

Bold black and white fashion rocked the Fall runways of big designers like Hervé Léger and Carolina Herrera earlier this year.  From clean and classic silhouettes to bold graphic prints, it’s one of the hottest trends this season.  With the holidays coming around the corner, we curvy fashionistas want to show up in style!  So how can we take this trend off the runway and wear it in real life?

Dresses
The easiest way to rock this trend, you should look for a dress with a bold black and white print in a style that flatters your curves.  All you need to complete your look is a pair of black shoes and your favorite piece of jewelry.  Don’t go crazy on the accessories.  You want your dress to be the star of the show!

Perfectly Paired Separates
If bold prints aren’t your thing, go the chic and classic route with black and white separates. A crisp black shirt with winter white pants, a black and white striped cardigan layered over a black turtleneck, or a white cowl neck sweater with black jeans are just a few stylish ideas!

Accessories
Don’t want to invest in the trend but still want to have fun with it?  Accessories are the way to go! Fashion jewelry like black and white bangles or chandeliers can dress up any little black dress.  Tuxedo heels with a black suit or a checkered handbag to rock with your weekend wear – anything goes when it comes to choosing trendy accessories.  As with all things, too much of a good thing could spell a fashion disaster so don’t go too crazy!
