Color reached an apex this year. Barbie pink, aqua blue, kelly green, and every other bright shade on the color wheel was plastered across collections, from Zara to Valentino. Even as we speak, hot pink is slated to be one of the major handbag colors for fall. And while everyone's fixation remains on the boldest and brightest hues, I'm switching gears momentarily to refocus on the most classic "color" of them all: black.
I've probably bought more tops and dresses in ultra-saturated colors than anyone else this year, and while it's a trend I still endorse, there's something that just feels right about wearing all black in the fall. Compared to the out-there hues circling around this season, it's a color that's forgiving, timeless, and extremely versatile. Not that anyone needs a reason to shop fashion's most appreciated non-color color, I'm giving you a few below. Keep scrolling for 30 stylish all-black pieces to get you right for the season.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks wildly expensive?
If you look up "statement top" in the encyclopedia, I'm pretty sure this image is right there.
If you haven't jumped on the cargo-pant train yet, what are you waiting for?
Sooner or later, you're going to need this.
Wear this with jeans or puddle pants.

These are already selling out fast.
There are no words to describe how much I think about this sweater. The extra surprise is an open back.
With the exposed shoulders, this top is perfect for the transitional weather.
I've rediscovered my love of flats, so naturally, these are in my cart.
