black & summer

I'm wearing more and more black colour these days, as it's a colour that goes nicely with my dark floral skirts. The best colour to pair with black is usually black, so it's easy to slide into a 'back to black' route. But I'm keeping my accessories colourful and using black as a background which makes other colours stand out.
I've also been buying some (second hand) black shirts. Sometimes thrifting gods send you some stuff that you've never dreamed of, and it would be rude to refuse. I think they will mix nicely into my autumn wardrobe. Now I'm waiting they send me some cool trousers!

Me estoy vistiendo más a menudo de negro estos días, sobre todo combinado con mis faldas de estampados en fondo negro. Normalmente el color que mejor va con el negro es más negro, así que es fácil pasarse al lado oscuro. Pero yo intento que mis accesorios sean coloridos y usar el color negro como fondo para que los demás colores se vean realzados.
También he comprado unas cuantas camisas negras, pura casualidad. Cuando compras de segunda mano dependes mucho de la suerte, que te hace encontrar cosas que ni se te habían ocurrido, y es mejor sacarle partido. Así que tengo unas camisas negras que me irán genial en el otoño. Ahora sólo me falta encontrar algún pantalón bonito, a ver si tengo suerte.

    The black tops really show off the incredible prints of your skirts. I love your sunglasses, Vronni's necklace and your hair looks amazing! xxx

  2. Sometimes, a simple plain black garment is all one needs to update one's outfits. All your outfits here are particularly striking. It's lovely to see yet another incarnation of your massive flower skirt, which looks delightful with the orange t-shirt and black cardi. Your maxi skirt really makes my heart sing - that pattern is really most divine - and the simple black top is really all it needs! Loving Vronni's necklace, which is so you! xxx

    1. Love the word 'striking', thanks for your lovely compliment!. Glad you like this massive flower skirt, is a favourite in the Winter because of its darker colours, but I like it in the summer too.

  3. I don't think black is boring when other colours are added to it. I loved your black and orange outfit; and the black, pink and turquoise outfit was fab! It's definitely the accessories that help lift black, too. Your sandals are so cool...

    It's been a really chilly day here today - autumn is on its way, I fear.

  4. While black is most likely the last colour people associate with me (lol), I love having a few good black tops/skirts for letting other pieces pop. Great outfits (I adore that skirt, and am drooling over your glorious necklace in the 2nd look).

  5. You have so many colourful patterned pieces in your wardrobe it's easy to mix the black ones in there.
