Five Stylish Ways to Wear White and Black (Part 1 of White Blazer Series)

Oh, white! There are so much to say about it that I don’t even know where to start. No doubt that it’s a perfect color for spring and summer. But since someone raised this question last fall: “why can’t we wear white after labor day?”  Then white finally be worn the year round-which greatly satisfied “white” fans like me.

I have a tiny frame and an “Asian face” which make me look much better and “visible” in white than in black, especially in white tops, they can instantly correct lighten my skin tone. Wearing them as I was holding reflector for myself. So, the first-class members in my  wardrobe are white blazers and button downs.

Let’s start from white blazers. They can add polish to any outfit, and give you the fresh, crisp, effortlessly chic look you need in spring and summer. When it comes to pairing them, there are millions of ways. Today I want to focus on my favorite way-pairing white blazers with black pieces.

I know, this combo is so classic. By trying different materials, details or cuts, and combined with different accessories, this classic combination can be luxury or easy-breezy, edgy or sweet, polish or laid back…You name it. Let take a look at these stylish ladies:

Luxurious Meets Practical: Louis Vuitton Burgundy Sofia Coppola SC Bag

The first time I got my passport, the first question raised on my mind was:” why the cover is burgundy?”  But after a second look, I thought:” why not burgundy?

Burgundy is so universally flattering, versatile yet stylish. It’s serious but still has a lively vibe. It’s classical and modern at the same time.

It’s a perfect color for fall and winter, but when paired with light and fresh tones like pink or ivory, it will make your look sophisticated in spring and summer, especially when it is used in bags, like this LV Sofia Coppola SC Miranda Kerr carries:

Gemstone of The Peoples: The Charm of Turquoise

Without a doubt, my favorite jewelry piece in this year’s Golden Globe Awards is Heidi Klum’s turquoise necklace. Not just for its charm of this million-dollar necklace but also for the fresh contrast between her bold necklace and sleek nude dress.
