Black + White Geometry.
Good Morning. Hard to believe that 1/3rd of August is already gone, right? Ehhh, me neither. But Summer is hardly over, around here. It is expected to be a hot August and hot September, also. And when it is really hot, less is more to me, especially when it comes to Jewelry. Which is almost non-existent in today's look. I did layer this Striped Dress over a Tank Top (for some coverage, since it is really bare on top with an open back) and even layered my Geometric Circle Skirt over it for something different. Adding my Rose Polka Dot Belt, Nude Patent Leather Pumps and a little bit of volume to my hair (which happened naturally), was the perfect way to dress up these pieces for a Sunday fundraiser brunch. Plus as much as I prefer Geometric shapes, I love them even more when they are in Black+White. Makes them look even more graphic and cooler. What do you think? Do you own any B+W Geometric-Print Dresses or Skirts?

Yup! I own lots of black & white geometric clothing. I love how you paired yours with a nude heel instead of a traditional black. Looks great.

I'm the same with jewelry, Ada. When it's hot out, minimal is definitely the way to go. =)
