It's all right here in black and white . . . - a list by hanahula

Options for This Page

About this list:

Color is everywhere this season, but I am also seeing some interesting patterns in black and white. Not to mention, I am seeing a bumper crop of LBDs (little black dresses) that are just as jaw-droppingly gorgeous as anything in flowers or geometrics. As more of the fall's fashions are revealed, I hope to add even more finds to this list. Stay tuned to this noir channel . . .

Qualifications:

I wore nearly nothing but black and white for several years.

Vivre: Glass Segment Necklace by Vera Wang

First to recommend

Description

A cascade of clear and translucent glass makes a stunning statement piece in shades that will complement nearly any complexion. The self-tying gold cord enables you to decide how long to wear it.

MaxStudio: ORIGAMI DRESS

First to recommend

Description

At first glance, this dress is simply a taffeta A-line. Look more closely: notice the intricate folds of fabric and grosgrain ribbon at the waist-line in front and the elegant pleats that extend all the way around the waist. Fully lined, this LBD can be worn all-year long: with tights in the cooler months, with a high-heeled sandal in the warmer months. It is an origami canvas, awaiting your next great event.

L.A.M.B. Handbags Signature Westfield Tote

First to recommend

Description

What's black and white and cool all over ? Why L.A.M.B. (and the creative muse behind the product: Gwen Stefani) of course ! Weather-resistant, fully lined, logo-bedecked, and generously sized, this tote lacks only an owner.

Garnet Hill: Appliquéd Bathing Suit by Karla Colletto

First to recommend

Description

Although much more figure-flattering than some of the suits Esther Williams wore, this black one-piece reminds me of the gorgeously feminine details of her swimwear. The lily detail and the square neckline distinguish this suit from so many of the other black suits I have seen recently, making it one of my favorites this season.

Garnet Hill: Appliquéd Dress by Karla Colletto

First to recommend

Description

This little lycra lady does have a matching bathing suit, but she is oh so pretty that you just might decide to wear her solo now and then. The simple A-line design makes this an easy and fun dress to wear, however and whenever you choose.

Anthropologie: Monochrome Sun Hat

First to recommend

Description

This women's hat is a little easier to try, if you are having some doubts. A little less conspicuous in black and white, it won't call as much attention to you as a broader brimmed, more colorful version would. Yet, it still has loads more pizazz than your average baseball hat.

UrbanOutfitters: Bean Town Lover Tee

First to recommend

Description

Born in Boston, I will always consider it my hometown. Even though I never lived within the city limits, I have a visceral connection to the people, the sports teams and the history of the place. In fact, the "Boston Tea Party" is the event that inspired the name of tee shirt list.

Betsey Johnson: Vanna Shoes

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Betsey goes nautical in her own inimitable style: shiny black patent and white, finished with a button detail. Dressy enough for the street, sandal enough for the beach.

Wild Side Swim Series

First to recommend

Description

Available as separates, this swim series enables you to choose the perfect size to suit both your top and bottom halves. The "wavy dot" design in black and white has a bikini and tankini top as well as full-coverage or side-tie bottoms. AND every piece of this swimwear is rated UPF 50+. So you can spend more time on your wild side, and less time inside.

Revolve Clothing: Zig Zag Flat in Black by MELISSA

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

Rubber shoes that mold to the shape of your feet provide sure footing and a low profile. And you can afford to buy more than one pair at a time.
