Clinging onto black

I love wearing black and brown, and wearing both together is one of my favorite color combinations. The days are numbered, soon it will be too hot and summery to wear them (at least in a combo). Today started off cloudy, so I grabbed the opportunity to wear the darks. Black jeans, sweater and coat, dark brown boots, Evelyne gloves, Lena horn necklace and Ebene Kelly.

    Black is the perfect canvas for all of your fabulous scarves. It is so practical and easy to wear.

    ladyjane, first of all, congrats on your first Kelly!! You have decided on a true classic, a great choice. I do understand your feelings, I also had a sense of panic when I bought my first Kelly, but I think I would have panicked ten times more if it had been a bright colored one, lol! Take your Kelly out, use her and let her become part of your life. Black is so chic and always will be. :-)

    Oh thank you MaiTai that makes me feel better, keep telling myself i have 2 bags in one as a 28 black can go from day to night.Problem is i have no friends who understand paying £££ on a bag so have no one to discuss things like this with.

    ladyjane, I am glad you are feeling better :-)) For a lot of people it is difficult to understand why anyone would spend $$$ on a bag. Very wise not to talk about it. Thank god there are enough like minded people around in cyber world who are in the same position as you and happy to share. Enjoy your beautiful Kelly.x

    Maitai, I love black with brown (warms it up) and black with blue (makes this asian girl feel very french lol). You look stunning. I love it for summer too - so long as it is a little bit skimpier, it can be very summery.
    hugs,

    P.S. Lady jane, I hope I am not being too forward or out of place in commenting that I think your choice of kelly is the most classic, drop dead gorgeous one (and none of my friends understand dropping $$$ on H either) just think cost is per wear -- the more you wear the less expensive your beautiful bag becomes

    Hi 880, it's a real joy to see you here! Totally agree with you on the summer option, these color combos are so chic, whatever the season (and work with my bags too, lol)

    Spot on comment on ladyjane's Kelly, wise words indeed.

    Hugs to you! xx

    Michelle, in daylight Ebene is a cool, dark brown and at night it appears to be almost black.
