Black and minimalism unite to give birth to a new trend in fashion

Minimalizing in Black is Back

Have you ever heard the phrase, “Who’s that in all that BLACK?” This fall you will.

What embodies this hot trend are the enduring color black and the timeless concept of minimalism.

Minimalism is a fashion concept based on using little to no accessories or wearing clothing with very simple detailing.

Rolling along with minimalism is the standard, timeless and elegant black. Traced back to the roaring twenties, black has always been a fashion classic.

Be sure to lace your closet with key items in black. Aim at purchasing cable knit sweaters, trench coats, corduroy blazers or black denim. Try accessorizing an all black outfit with a basic color, silver or gold. It’s sure to be a hit!

The Wild, Wild West

When the United States began their westward expansion with the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, no one would have thought that it would become an inspiration for modern fashion designers hundreds of years later.

This fall designers are incorporating all types of western influences into their clothing to put a new spin on the fall fashion season.

A Mix-Match Made in Heaven

Have you ever found yourself confused about what you should wear? You want to be trendy yet conservative, comfortable yet classy.

Mixing and matching can be seen all over the hottest runways this fall. Try wearing your standard black suit, with a pair of red converse and a vintage T-shirt. You can even wear that vest from a three-piece suit with a button-down shirt, a pair of jeans and some Nike Air Force Ones. Bring together the essence of the office while maintaining a laid back and comfortable look, all at the same time!

This style that will make you stand out from the crowd and be admired as an individual.

By bringing together different genres of clothing to form one outfit you are sure to satisfy your “I don’t know what to wear,” blues!
