During Christmas season, when I’m surrounded by so many red and green, the chicness of classic black and white always freshes me up, not to mention that this combo will be the hottest in the coming spring/summer.

Today, I picked three of my favorite black & white looks lately to share with you how to dress them up and stand out from the crowd. Besides, you can wear any of them from office directly to the after hours party.

Olivia Palermo’s outfit is all about texture. Silk fabric makes a 9-to-5 white button down shirt dressy enough for night. Leather pants toughen up the softness while gold accessories add Luxurious finishing touches.

Want to wear a white sweater to a party? Use other pieces to balance the casualness of the pullover. Like this ankle bow pants, eye-catching pumps and structured clutch.

Anja Rubik’s jumpsuit is as powerful as a glittering gown. A crisp white tuxedo blazer with contrast lapels is the perfect complement. This metallic belt cinches the waist while adding edgy chicness. And it matches the metallic cap toe on this gorgeous pump!

How will you accessories your black and white? Share with me!

By Helen Hou

I'm Helen. In the huge fashion world, what attracts me the most is the way different people accessorize themselves. Our daily outfit choices are not just about the pieces we pick, they relate to something lurking deeply within our hearts: how we feel about ourselves, how we express ourselves to the rest of the world, what kind of people do we want to be and what kind of life do we want to live. Following my passion for fashion, I immerse myself in this bizarre world and try my best to share what I learned with you!
