back when i was 14, i went through a really weird phase where i would only dress in black. no exceptions. as time progressed, i realised that “oh wait”, black is great but i have a whole rainbow of colours to experiment with. and so i did. i’ve tried probably every colour out there, a few looked ghastly, while some worked. i’m so glad there’s hardly any photographic evidence of those terrible teenage years haha!
after many many years, i obviously know which colours suit me and which don’t. i also have a very specific colour palette when i hit the stores, which makes it oh so breezy to finish quicker.
even though pink has dethroned black as the colour i heart the most, it still reigns supreme in the colour scheme of my life. black and white specifically. whether its work wear, decor or even selfies, black and white rule the roost for me.
a deadly combination, mixed with some accents of gold, red or hot pink, simply cannot go wrong. stripes as well, as shown in today’s post, look oh so classy just worn over a simple pair of black pants or jeggings. styled with a really massive black tote from forever new that fits in everything, but your house.
gold accessories pretty much are a big favourite here at the whimsical diaries including everything from watches, bracelets, cuffs and rings.
so if you haven’t already, your next shopping trip, do try to add a bit of monochrome and you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how, a supposed lack of colour is made up for in so many ways by the absolute magnificence of black and white. sometimes, just plain classics do the trick and we couldn’t be happier!
you can see their full range of totes here and even shop on their indian website forevernew.co.in
