Black Out Recap

It's been a couple of days, since the end of the Black-Out, and I have had some time to think about it. If you didn't catch them at the time of posting, here are the outfits I wore (the photos are links to the posts):




Over all, I feel pretty good about it. I cheated once, but other than that, I really learned how to embrace colours and other neutrals. I did lean on navy blue and white a bit, but I that helped me realize that the base of an outfit doesn't HAVE to be black. The week also saw me experimenting with colours as neutrals (Day 3, I would definitely classify that skirt as a neutral) and days entirely without neutrals (Day 2).

Did you participate in the Black-Out? What are your thoughts on black clothing?

Love,
Rosie

  1. Would have been fun to participate.=) I love colours but of course I sometimes fall back on black clothes to, it's easy to match and it looks good.

  2. I think it's great that you decided to do this! I, for one, wear too much black - even in the summer time. Black is safe and comfortable, but boring! I should definitely look into doing something similar.

  7. That seems like a great challenge! I might have to try it with navy, though. I wear black a fair bit, but navy is the real culprit in dominating my closet.
