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.

Dominique Cohen 3-Strand Pearl Necklace

First to recommend

Description

Chic, even a bit edgy, this jewelry line from Dominque Coehn is beautiful AND affordable. Be sure to look for the rings and earrings also available, exclusively at Target. (via Target)

DKNY: Short Sleeve Dress With Burnout Hem

First to recommend

Description

Demonstrating the striking beauty of black on black, the hem of this is cut to look like lace and accented with black gems. Unadorned, it is a pretty dress for day. With a gladiator sandal and a pair of drop earrings, it will be a knock-out for evening.

Hatsinthebelfry: Vanessa by Betmar

First to recommend

Description

Similar to one worn by Carrie (Andie MacDowell) in "Four Weddings And A Funeral", this hat will definitely make you stand out in a crowd. She is no wallflower . . . and neither will you be when you wear her with the confidence befitting such beauty.

Saks Fifth Avenue: French Lace Flapper Dress by Ports 1961

First to recommend

Description

If I had to choose another era in which to live, it would be the 1920s. Hands down. Perhaps I've seen the play "Chicago" a few too many times, imagining myself a glamorous show girl as played by Bebe Neuwirth. Or maybe I'm just in love with the flapper dresses, cloche hats and gentleman in suits. This dress thoroughly indulges my flight of fancy, enabling me to travel back in time if only for an evening. And all that jazz.

Two Pocket Sling Hobo - Black

First to recommend

Description

Even if you cannot afford your own flat in London, you may be able to save up for one of these fabulous handbags. The details are gorgeous, unique and feminine . . . even the lining is sumptuous and queenly. And if you cannot spring for a bag this season, try one of MFIL's t-shirts. Your wardrobe will thank you for the royal treatment.

Lord and Taylor: Frayed Wide Brim Hat by UGG Australia

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

With its frayed edges and wide brim, this hat almost looks like one that a gypsy would wear. Think maxi skirts and floral floor-length sun dresses with substantial leather sandals, or wide-legged jeans with an ombre tunic. Nothing plain Jane about this hat . . . or the woman who wears it.

Neiman Marcus: Patent d'Orsay Wedge by Christian Louboutin

First to recommend

Description

This shoe is not merely something to wear, it is a sculpture which will be made complete only by the addition of your foot. The shine of the patent leather makes it a gorgeous evening accessory. Don't leave home without it!

BraSmyth: Phantom One Piece by Gideon Oberson

First to recommend

Description

I love the long line that this one-piece provides for your torso. Since I myself am short-waisted, I always appreciate that in a bathing suit. Sleek and sophisticated, this suit still leaves plenty to the imagination.

BraSmyth: Phantom Tankini by Gideon Oberson

First to recommend

Description

A little more revealing than a one-piece, but a lot less high-maintenance than a bikini, this suit provides great coverage and a little extra support up top. The gorgeous trim distinguishes it from all of the other black suits out there on the beach.

Scosha NYC: Caravan bracelets

First to recommend

Description

Just like we used to make during Arts & Crafts class at camp, only these braids include gold toggles and bezel-set jewels (emerald, sapphire and ruby). A great gift for a special teacher or friend . . . just don't forget yourself.
