Black and White

It is no question that I am a major fan of color. Anything bright and vibrant is right up my alley. My room at home is this shade of pink. I rest my case!

But one of my favorite trends for spring/summer is black and white. Especially in a professional environment, this is the perfect palette. The contrasting tones are contemporary and fun while still being adult. And they are also a great canvas for pops of color. You can see why I love this trend so much. I can share my love for color in appropriate doses. A win-win for any office.

1. I own this striped peplum number. It has the perfect amount of stretch and is super slimming! Plus, the peplum hides any problem areas, which is great after a lunch out. Add a cute orange-y coral bag and this is a perfect, comfy look for those warm summer days in the office.

2. Another striped number goes great with a bright red belt. Not only does the belt cinch your middle, but it also adds a fun dose of color to an otherwise black and white dress. Add a black cardigan or blazer to take off the chill from the AC. These nude pumps elongate your gams and round out an easy, fun summer outfit.

3. A simple pair of black pants and a white, silk peplum top (you can start to see my obsession for peplum here, right?) is the easiest outfit possible. To keep it from looking too waitress-y, add a fun pop with a neon necklace (I own it in coral but couldn't find it online) and leopard print pumps. This outfit is pretty ordinary but with the appropriate accessories, it looks anything but.
