<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First things first: yes, I always wear black (or a monochrome palette of black, white and grey if I'm feeling cray-zay) but I often find myself on a self-inflicted guilt trip over my lack of interest in experimenting with colour – until recently... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You see, I've come to realise that nailing a head-to-toe black-on-black ensemble takes just as much skill as any colourful combination of mixed prints and layering. Black is what I'm drawn to and it's what I feel best in, but that doesn't mean it has to be boring. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the sake of having a more feminine option (and keeping my mother happy), I always have a great black and white printed dress on standby. The addition of a bit of white lightens the heaviness of a LBD, making it way more appropriate for daytime and the warmer months!</span></div>
