Everything?






How many times has Jay-Z said it?
How many times has every rapper repeated it?
"All black everything."
I think they're onto something...
Well obviously they're onto something. When hasn't black been THE color for everything? Has anything ever really been the "new" black?
The answer is no. No, and no, and no some more. Black is classic, never goes out of style and is slimming (says my inner QVC salesperson). You don't have to wear all black all the time, but a black suit jacket to style your look up, black dress shoes to add sophistication to a casual look, a black dress shirt rather than just a tee.
In my opinion if you have a good amount of black in your closet then you're on the right track.
Just don't start using black lipstick, wearing military boots that lace to your crouch and referring to yourself as Thangorn, guardian of the troll empire or whatever the hell you do on World of Warcraft. I don't care. I've got a blog to run.

Food for thought...

I think higher levels of fashion are gateway drugs.
When it comes to dressing yourself, finding your style, and experimenting with clothing, at least for me has lead to something far different.
Don't get me wrong I love suits. They are and will continue to be the driving part of my wardrobe, but dressing it down, adding tees, trainers, jeans has become a completely different beast for me. Utilizing urban clothing as well as a higher level of fashion broadens the horizons and opens doors for the suited man who is looking to keep his look top notch, but his clothes a little low fi.
