Black Attack


Here is another take on the all black outfit with a hint of white. Last week I wore this, and I kept the vibe going with today's outfit. I chose to wear my black brocade pants with a simple black tank top and my white blazer. I switched things up by wearing the white element on the top as opposed to the bottom. This blazer has a leatherette feature on the lapels as well as shoulder pads. Now hear me out, I don't completely condone shoulder pads. They do have their purpose. I think they can be used to create a certain silhouette. If you want a boxier, edgier look with sharp lines, shoulder pads can work very well. However, I do not think that enormous shoulder pads such as they were in the 80's and 90's are very useful anymore. You can obtain a similar, less over-the-top, look with smaller shoulder pads. Bigger is not always better!
