...go together in perfect harmony, side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don't we....
Oh this song has been stuck in my head all day today, all because of my outfit.
I look better in ivory than white (or at least I think I do) and I adore the pairing of black and ivory - it always seems so chic to me:
a little sweater and black pants...
...or glossy kitchen cupboards
How about lovely chessboards, that make me think of the iconic song "One Night in Bangkok"?
The toile wallpaper in my bathroom (more creamy than ivory I grant you!):
There is just something so chic about this combination in its simplicity.
Today I was having lunch out with a friend and then was off to get my teeth cleaned. It was a gorgeous day and my friend and I were able to sit out on a patio, which in my humble opinion, can elevate any meal to new heights, what with the fresh air, the warm sun and the people watching.
I dug out my cafe capris in "natural" from a year or two ago, a creamy luisa cerano blouse and my new black featherweight cotton cardigan. I paired it with a pair of black and cream j crew ballet slippers from two years ago - the ones with the big floppy flowers on them.
The shoes are a bit over the top, but I am very partial to them...
And cascading pearly drop earrings that you can see below:
You are all going to start calling me Joan of Arcadia - I am not a master of this sort of picture taking and I swear, they all look like I am getting a message from God! (buy more shoes, wendy...)
I loved this outfit and felt like a million bucks all day long. If I was going to a more dressy event, I would have just traded out the shoes for nude or black pumps and would be good to go.
So does black and ivory speak to you? Do you wear the combination much? Any colour combinations that are especially speaking to you this spring?
Have a happy Tuesday and stay safe out there!
