I thought summer would mean - like it always does - vacations, music festivals, outdoor movie series, BBQs, Starbucks iced lattes, Martha’s Vineyard, regular pedicure visits, and a closet filled with brights and whites….right???? Wrong!
It’s been creeping up on me, but this summer leaves no doubt that black is back. Sure, not everyone is happy about it. Myself included. However, full black seems to be the uniform for any occasion this summer….a wedding, dinner al fresco, or a Sunday concert at the beach.
Throw on some black skinny jeans, a black tank top, and…never leave home without them…a pair of black Ray Bans and you’re the “it” girl straight from the pages of InStyle! Of course, you can always have your black in a summer dress too.
In an image change, hit singer Rihanna, has switched to all black in videos for her two new singles, “Shut Up and Drive” and “Don’t Stop the Music”. She sported her new look on a recent appearance on BET’s 106 & Park.
Dressed in a tank, skinny jeans, and retro oxford heels, Rihanna proved that she is not just another bubble gum pop girl, but a fashionista at heart. And while Amy Winehouse doesn’t always wear it, she has declared it with the title of her album “Back to Black”.
