What's Old is New Again. The New Black Outfit was 75% Thrifted.
According to the latest issue of Harper's Bazaar, we've got a "new black. "Remember the movie Funny Face? Not only was it a fun fashion romp featuring the gamine charms of Audrey Hepburn, it was a movie with some great memorable lines. One of them being the petulant declaration of "the new black."
The new black has since been declared by many a fashion editor: navy, white, pink, camel, nude, you name it, it's been it.
And this season, according to the Harper's Bazaar article, the NEW black is...
...BLACK.
Vintage Black Sequin Sweater and Ferragamo pumps are Classic Examples of the NEW Black.
Black is the new black. Somehow I'm not surprised. Like many people, I've been sporting my brights and mixed prints, yet craving the deep dark soul comfort of solid black. My pullover, a vintage version of sequins meets ugly sweater, seems more charming in its "blacker than midnight" glory than it could ever be in a more luminary hue. And what color can beat black in a pair of vintage Ferragamo pumps? Nothing, that's what.So whether you're freshly enjoying this uh, new, I mean old, I mean new/old trend, or, more likely never stopped, here's to the this flash-in-a-pan/never left it but it's back again, "it" color, BLACK. (Now aren't you glad you wear what you want, and don't listen to the dictates of the fashion editors?)
