Monochromatic Monday

I had a crazy week and a busy weekend, so Monday morning came pretty quickly! I wasn't feeling too inspired, so I grabbed my trusty black skinnies and added a white blouse with lace inserts. I stuck with black accessories and called it a day. The peek-a-boo lace panels on the blouse give it an edgier look, so I figured lace-up flats and a black statement necklace would complete the look well. It is a lot of black, but each element adds interest to the look, so it's not unidimensional. Since the weather is chillier lately, I reached for a leather topper to shield me from the wind gusts. I did end up liking this look, even though it was sort of thrown together. I guess I got lucky today and my outfit turned out to be a hit instead of a miss. Although, I try to avoid playing inspiration-roulette, some mornings, it's simply inevitable...
