Black is Best

People are always making fun of me because I own so much black. If I had to think numbers, I would say at the least 60% and at the most 80%.

It’s not that I planned it that way. It just so happens the sweaters, shirts, pants, etc. that I like and look good in tend to be black. And don’t get me started on my dresses.

I am overflowing in black dresses. I even try super hard to get colors, any color; but it never works. But hey, you know what they say about black dresses:

I guess the reason I gravitate towards it is that black always looks good.

And unlike certain colors that can only be worn at certain times of the year, black can be worn anytime and everywhere (except a day or afternoon wedding).

 

And no matter the occasion, chore, meeting, etc.; black clothing works for what ever you are doing that day:

But I guess they are right. My closet could use a little more variety of color.

Women in Black

Now I own a lot of black. It seems that every time I go shopping for an outfit, particularly a dress, I always end up purchasing something in black. It has gotten to the point that people all think my favorite color is black, and purchase items for me in black. It has made some formal occasions impossible (such as weddings), but you know what? I’ve decided to stop apologizing for it . After all:

They make you look good and great for anything you are planning on doing

After all:

One of my new favorite quotes! 🙂

Yep, Black rules
