Black - white, white - black // How are you? Not that I want to burden you with any black and white news, as the title suggests, and it is true that the sky is gray and wet socks are an unbalanced bet compared to the rain and wind that do undue violence to our shoes, umbrellas, coats...
Otherwise, a little fun activity with the weather won't hurt, and we can also have an excuse for a little sitting in the black and white armchair in front of our television. The time is almost perfect to stay at home, wrapped in a black and white blanket, with black and white socks on, sipping black and white cocoa from a white cup with black dots, immersed in an old black and white movie, mysterious, scary and haunted steeped in the central story. Perfect for any day. And why should we completely mute the colors and focus on black and white? Well, not quite definitively, this time the colors will only be companions to black and white. In short, and why black and white? It's not black and it's not white, it's two contrasting but compatible colors that will dictate fashion trends this spring and summer as well. Black and white has always been characterized by timelessness and was considered a kind of parable of the sign of the times. This time she will again play the central role, and the side ones will be more or less accompanied by quite vivid neon colors and bold colors such as impatient red, ladylike crimson and unsinkable dark blue. All shades of tropical sand will call summer and add a note of discretion.
Spring will be the absolute return of confident women in the style of the 60s, with gathered skirts, with large elegant belts, with bold prints and luxurious patterns, with black and white wide stripes and with small and large dots of black or white. Jeans will, as always, remain the favorite of our dressing, and the evenings will be reserved for sparkles, but on the condition that only one piece is glittering, sparkling in motion. This spring will be synonymous with black and white and neon. Anyone can wear black and white, anyone can transform it into their own personal style without a hint of monotony. We can go further than the standard black and white tops, because the fun of this trend is mixing these two colors from head to toe and creating distinct contrasts, where we will use both minimalistic and asymmetrical cuts and countless patterns that will be wearable every day. Still on the fence about how black and white should reflect your spring style?
