I've Worn This Outfit for 10 Years, and It Will Never Go Out of Style
Let’s just get straight to the point. I’m one of those fashion editors who live in all black. Call it cliché or boring, but the look is just, well, me. In fact, I’ve more or less worn the same uniform for the last 10 years—black jeans, some sort of top, a leather jacket, and boots or sneakers. Yes, of course I’m all about experimenting with new trends and pushing the boundaries, but a simple all-black look just works for me. In my opinion, it’s effortless, sleek, and will always be in style.
And you know what? Other fashion peeps are also on my level. You can think back to those classic all-black Audrey Hepburn looks all the way to now, with It girls taking to IG to highlight all-black ’fits on the regular. To that, I decided to showcase some of my favorite ensembles below to convince you further that the all-black uniform will always be in. And if you go a bit further, I shopped out some of the coolest black pieces of the moment as well.
Leather pants and a fuzzy pullover feels very right now.
You can’t go wrong with an eye-catching LBD and pointed booties.
Keep it chill in a cool sweatshirt, trousers, and sneakers.
A leather dress and turtleneck paired with thigh-high boots feels unexpected (and so right).
Try this look when you’re running around on the weekends with the moto jacket and jeans.
A long-sleeve dress paired with unique flats could easily become your new go-to night-out look.
When in doubt, embrace a sophisticated black suit to make a statement.
While simple, a black sweater paired with skinny jeans just always works.
Don't be afraid to play with different textures, like incorporating a faux-fur coat into your jeans and top ensemble.
Try this ’fit featuring a blazer coat, trousers, and flats for your 9-to-5 life.
