I'm Gearing Up for Fall the Way I Know How—30 All-Black Items I'm Shopping
Color reached an apex this year. Barbie pink, aqua blue, kelly green, and every other bright shade on the color wheel was plastered across collections, from Zara to Valentino. Even as we speak, hot pink is slated to be one of the major handbag colors for fall. And while everyone's fixation remains on the boldest and brightest hues, I'm switching gears momentarily to refocus on the most classic "color" of them all: black.
I've probably bought more tops and dresses in ultra-saturated colors than anyone else this year, and while it's a trend I still endorse, there's something that just feels right about wearing all black in the fall. Compared to the out-there hues circling around this season, it's a color that's forgiving, timeless, and extremely versatile. Not that anyone needs a reason to shop fashion's most appreciated non-color color, I'm giving you a few below. Keep scrolling for 30 stylish all-black pieces to get you right for the season.
