OOTD: Many Shades of Black

Today's look is a real simple one with an all black 'minimalist' style. I'll be creating a blog post soon with my new love of the colour Black. This may sound a little boring, but there are ways to make it interesting with the use of layers, different fabrics and the way you wear things.


This post is aptly named after one of my favourite Raconteurs songs 'Many shades of Black'. This is part true, as especially when you wear vintage black clothes the black can be either jet black or a faded black which again adds interest to a black outfit.

                          

The silk jacket is vintage self dyed black. The t-shirt is the 'Bruce Embroidery T-shirt' in black by Cheap Monday. The neck pouch is by Topman. Cheap Monday is a brand I've been coveting for a while now. I will do a blog post on their minimalist Swedish design soon.


The black high waist jeans are by Cheap Monday also and the boots are black matte boots by Doctor Martens. The backpack is vintage moleskin. The leather is distressed which I absolutely adore. Aged leather is more expensive, but is far more interesting than smooth leather.


The watch is the Casio gold databank. The leather wrist cuff is from an online sex shop.


That's today's simple casual look. Hope you like it. My next post will be featuring this new 'all black' ethos, which I have been obsessed with lately. Thank God it's getting colder and I no longer absorb the Sun's rays (I'm allergic to the sun, miserable weather all the way!)

Oh and I got my hair cut like a Hitler youth member today. Pictures soon. Until my next post....have a nice weekend!
