An everyday go-to amongst many, black is a color that can never do wrong. Personally, I’m much more of a grey-wearing individual, but my wardrobe has definitely blacked out a bit since moving to NYC. Why is it that New Yorkers wear so much black? I think a big reason is fear of staining your clothes while riding the subway or grabbing a drink on the go, at least that’s a concern for me. Then there’s your winter coats and jackets that must be neutral, otherwise they won’t get much use. I mean, how often can you wear a cobalt blue trench coat without looking like Paddington Bear? Not very. Below are a few of my favorite black things.

A. Count your lucky stars with this ah-mazing clutch wallet by Comme des Garcons. B. These statement-making spike earrings are double sided for twice the radness. C. An oversized scarf is an everyday essential, and I’m loving this skull-covered one. D. Channel your 60′s love child with these super cute circle sunnies. E. I bought these headphones last year and they are uber soft and comfortable. F. Tell your liver to fuck off with this hilarious flask. G. These jeweled covered heels are heaven sent! Plus the higher the heels, the closer to god. H. A friend rocked this brass necklace the other day, and it looked stunning. It’s part art deco, part steam punk, and every bit chic. I. Bad hair day? Put a turband on it. This studded piece is a personal favorite. J. For a new little black dress, opt for our new crisscross dress which features cross-back straps and a sweetheart neckline. K. This vegan leather belt features a studded bow and adds the perfect finishing touch to any ensemble.
