Back to Black

Okay so I know I shouldn't keep talking about the same few trends over and over again but how could I have forgotten about Express? I don't think I've stepped foot into an Express store since the 9th grade when I bought a pair of jeans, but after hunting online through their fall collection the other day I fell in love. amor. liebe. armastama (that means love in estonian, I looked it up). But seriously, they've nailed the edgy/classic look down to a science and their prices are extremely reasonable. For signature pieces... hello, baby.

Exhibit A-(Minus The) Leather Vest- $69.50


Let's play a game. Try and think of all the different ways you could possibly wear this vest. Over a lace dress with ankle boots, with skinny jeans and pumps, leggings and knee-high boots... I could keep going. This is number one on my list. Period.

and Exhibit B-The Boyfriend Jacket- $98

Dress it up, dress it down. Whenever you can use one piece to smoothly transition from business to casual to party, I'd say it's a must-have.

I don't think I will ever get over my black clothing phase. Classic, timeless, sophisticated, enough said.
