I've been in a black and white mood lately. It just seems so fresh and perfect for spring. So, I've done a little looking around and found a few things that I thought were rather fun. I thought you might enjoy seeing them and find them a little inspiring as well.
This could be recreated with appliques and trim.
If you're in for a beading project, you can create your own design. What a sour look on that model's face!
Just a simple little dress that pops with the black piping. You may remember that I made up a very similar top for Thrifty Thursday using the free pattern from By Hand London. You can find the pattern here, http://byhandlondon.com/products/polly-top and recreate your own little black and white dress.
Although this a wedding gown and it is all white, I thought it was just so pretty and romantic.
And for something completely over the top!!!!
Hope your week is not only black and white but filled with colorful and enjoyable events!!
Rhonda
There are some beautiful things here!
ReplyDeleteThanks Fran. There are a couple that I wouldn't
DeleteMind having in my wardrobe. Now only if I could make the elves sew a little faster ;)
Lovely! I'm really taken with #1 dress!
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible. The one that keeps calling my name though is the one with the 3 dimenisional beads. I think that would be such a fun dress to wear.
DeleteI've always loved and favored black and white graphic prints. Your choices are all fabulous but the very first one and the sequin/gingham combo take my breath away!
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the sequin skirt with the gingham shirt, my first thought was why not! I have a piece of black sequin fabric and I think I will copy this idea. Just fun!
DeleteI like them all. I can't pick a favorite! Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteA good one for you to think about would be the white dress with the black piping. The pattern is free and it's easy to put together. We'll talk ;)
DeleteThese are all so fabulous, Rhonda. I too have been in a B&W mood. My stash is growing in that direction. And I love to see just a tiny bit of pop, as in the orange accent. Could be lime green or purple or anything! Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteOooo, I love the lime green idea!
DeleteAll the garments are fabulous and inspirating:the black dress is a good idea!
ReplyDeleteAny and all of these garments would look fabulous on you!
DeleteThe Queen of black and white here...gorgeous choices! I'll take them all (and I'll smile...)
ReplyDeleteYes, you are truly royalty!! I feel so bad that I didn't include one of your fabulous outfits.
DeleteUhm this is some SERIOUS inspiration here RhondaBuss. I want it all!
ReplyDeleteMe too! Now if only we could get the elves to sew a little faster ;)
DeleteGorgeous stuff. I particularly liked to gingham check dress that worked two sizes of check.
ReplyDeleteYes, this is the second time I've posted a dress that used 2 sizes of gingham print. Such a nice idea.
