In the dark

Here’s my leather and cashmere take on an all-black outfit. A simple mono look with two opposing finishes: one that absorbs and one that reflects light. I broke up the solid black with an accessory with lots of details and some strappy sandals in lieu of flats - I’ve been on a thorough sneaker binge lately and haven’t worn heels in ages!

    Are the joggers lined? I also like the Birkenstock-esque buckles on the heels.

    I love those joggers. I hesitate wearing leather/ faux leather bottoms cause I’m always afraid they’ll stick to me! But this loose shape is the perfect solution. Love how you mixed two different materials, it really has a dramatic effect!

    Do you know, I tried those sandals on in the tan and didn’t think about the black and I think I missed a trick here. They look awesome … as does your whole outfit which gives me something to think about when it gets colder - at the moment, we’re in the high 20’s and I can’t think straight with the heat!

    Love the all-black outfit with a mix of textures to add interest :)
    And as usual I love your bag too. You have great bag taste! I’m sure I’ve said that before, but it needs repeating ;)

    loving those sandals — the heels are perfect! the texture in all of these pieces prevents the outfit from being too monotone. such a good way to wear all black!

    I love the leather joggers & those round frames on you! I wish I could get away with them, but I think my face is just too square. I’ve been living in sneakers too recently, it’s a hard habit to break again once you get used to the comfort!

    You should wear this outfit all the time. Seriously. It’s THAT good. And you almost fooled me for a second with those sandals, I was thinking they were the Alexander Wang ones! x
