1. Casual black pantsuit
The casual black playsuit is THE capsule outfit for 2019. Suitable for work, dates and even casual affairs. Wear with heels, white trainers, a blazer or just a flash of red lippy, according to the occasion.
2. Black jeans can be chic
Everybody has a pair of black jeans that they would like to wear all the time. Slimming, comfortable and versatile. Don’t worry about looking scruffy in jeans as you can seriously chic-up black denimwear with the right outfit. Kitten heels, a white shirt, a summer jacket; any of these transform black jeans into effortless elegance in no time.

3. Upgrade your leggings
Yes, leggings are finally acceptable again, but that doesn’t mean you want
to walk around in a baggy knee-ed, faded pair. Opt for these comfy bottoms with
an interesting twist. The most daring might even go for leather leggings, which
allow you to get away with this uber forgiving item in an up-to-date style.
4. Freshen up the LBD with accessories
The Little Black Dress (LBD) is not going anywhere. Freshen it up with the
latest accessories –
https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/fashion/shopping/little-black-dresses-166216. This season’s top accessories
including eye-catching hair bands and clips as well as striking black
jewellery. You can also pump up the little black dress (or indeed the black
jeans, black pantsuit or leggings) with contrast heels. Fuchsia shoes anyone?
Now that makes a statement.
5. All that shimmers..isn’t always gold
Black clothes with added sparkle aren’t just the reserve of Christmas parties.
A black dress or jumper with integrated sparkles or glimmer is a very different
affair to a plain black top without it.
6. Black in summer
Black does not have to be, and should not be, consigned to winter months. Black
can look super striking teamed with a deep tan and the smell of a summer’s
evening. The black maxi dresses like those in stock at https://www.axparis.com/collections/maxi-dresses are the perfect summer solution.
As you can see, it’s easy to wear black in a way that’s fresh, chic and
elegant, with very little effort and just a tad of creativity.
