One of my favorite spring trends is black and white.  It's classic, crisp, clean and believe it or not, versatile.  You can wear it in many different ways from mixed print to color blocked.  In most cases you already have both in your closet.  Start putting them together and see what amazing outfit pops up. 

The best part about a color trend is that you can put your own stamp on it, remix it just the way you want and make a statement.  However, one thing you can't do (in my humble opinion) is mix black with a dingy white.  Make sure it's bleach, just got it out the package, snow white. 

And yes, for all those asking, there is a difference between off-white and dingy white.  One is a color and the other is something you need to retire.

Here are some tall black and white options.  How do you plan on rocking the trend?
