As much as I love playing dressing up, there's nothing quite as alluring as a simple black and white outfit. Especially one that involves a white button down and black trousers (or some variation of it). It's smart, sophisticated and never outdated.
In this case, my white button down involves a luxurious silky designer shirt with a playful cape detail and some skin tight leather leggings. A classic black and white uniform provides the perfect backdrop to showcase my latest shoe obsession, these metallic silver sandals. I love the slight hint of skin they lend to an otherwise covered up outfit. Finishing off with a dash of colour on the lips, a structured tote to offset the flowy shirt, and a bright white mani/pedi.
Simple as it may be, I think I've just found my new favourite outfit. That just goes to show, they don't call them classics for nothing.

Great outfit! so simple yet so elegant. loving the leggings in particular, think I have to add them to my shopping list!
Perfection! Proof that although complicated layers are fun (and necessary) sometimes, they are not required to look chic and sophisticated. I really love this simple black and white combination.
