MONOCHROMANIA

If I could choose a "go to" outfit suitable for just about any occasion, it would most probably be something monochromatic and in Black & White. Be it my pre-occupation or occupational hazard to gravitate towards this combination, I don't quite know. I do however know that most women can pull it off with relative ease. If you are in doubt about what to wear, buy separates and mix and match them up until you get the desired results. It's amazing how easy it is do " dress" up without having to go to town on a budget or designer labels. You can always spruce it up with a classic bag or timeless accessories.  Most of these items worn today are from chain stores like H & M, Superstar and Next clothing, making it relatively easy to assemble something tasteful in a jiffy!

  2. I couldn't agree more with Luba.
    Your brand mix is excellent and proves it is not about the single brand or costs but the styling.
    Ah... and your shoes!
    Gorgeous, Nicolene.
