Going back to black is a perfect curve ball to throw at your summer wardrobe (especially as we start to transition to fall). While brights and vibrant prints are always a staple for the season, there is an overwhelming presence of cool associated with a dark and daring ensemble. A maxi dress you’ve worn dozens of times over can be transformed with a different shoe choice and some bold accessories. I recently discovered BuDhaGirl, their wrap bracelets and necklace (even wore backwards) complete the look. Unleash your inner Rooney Mara by way of elegant but equally mysterious accessories. And while you’re at it, have a little fun with that hemline. Tie a loose knot for a little extra breathing room and a dramatic opening for a major footwear moment.
