the [updated] black blazer.

rediscovering my love of black as well as having an appreciation for simplicity, i've been updating my wardrobe with neutral pieces in varying textures. mornings run smoothly when i can confidently grab separates that i know will work together and look good together.

this textured blazer has a form-fitting shrunken fit, different from the oversized shapeless black blazers i've worn in the past. layered here over my favorite leather tank top, the textures give this otherwise simple black on black mix enough visual interest to get noticed.

i'm also rocking love & sunshine's newest design...
the crossbody bag.

how do you simplify getting dressed in the morning?

I love wearing black, it just goes with everything and you can add fun accents, accessories and bold pops of color. You look great :)

Shorter version blazer is actually better especially for 'shorty' like me.. it gives an illusion of longer legs.. need one!
