A Black Summer

Black is my go to color, I actually have long ago sworn off most anything brown related for fear that my go to color may clash (I'm starting to lighten up on that based on some of the camel colored browns bags that look so sophisticated...). I truly can't think of a more perfect outfit than a v neck black t, dark jeans and some great accessories.

I decided to put together a cute weekend combo courtesy of Banana Republic & Anthropologie.

At Banana I got this simple, but well detailed Alex lace trim v-neck ($39.50)& then to add some color & energy - this perfect striped scarf from Anthro (Fully Striped Scarf in Black - $38).

I adore the idea of scarves in the summer, as backwards as it sounds -- but with most restaurants & malls being freezing, it's a good way to keep some warmth indoors and can be easily taken off and tied on your purse when outside.
