There are are so many ways to wear a classic white shirt and black slacks; and you can never go wrong with a black and white combination! It’s the classic that never goes out of style; and every woman needs at least one white shirt, and a pair of black pants in their closet. This classic combination can take you from work to dinner, or happy hour; and it doesn’t have to be boring.
In this post, I’m featuring two classic pieces with a stylish twist from Universal Standard. The added silhouette-enhancing feature (black band detail) on the sides of the shirt is sophisticated and eye-catching! This shirt can be dressed up or down and it has an invisible built-in stretch, witch I appreciate, because that gives a freedom of movement. Who doesn’t appreciate that?
Now, I owned quite a few black pants and I love when I come across work pants that are not only comfortable but have a stylish twist to them… And these pants are not your average work pants. They feature a removable cuff – which have gotten a few comments and questions! Both modern and comfortable, I love that these pants are made from a mid-weight ponte material and sit nicely at the waist. And oh they also have pockets!
For a different take on the white and black look, I added an untied bow tie (and a hat), which is an unique touch to a classic black and white look. – What are your thoughts on this outfit?

Hey Edwige! I love this outfit, it’s very gender neutral, but you still make the overall outfit super sexy with just a pair of heels! I have been hearing a lot of about Universal Standard, and I really need to check it out.

Hahaha! I’m not even sure why I didn’t include that in. Sometimes, I have a hard time deciding on pictures to include, as I don’t want to overwhelm you with them! lol
You would never overwhelm anybody with your pictures! Although I may be overwhelmed in a good way! If you need any help deciding id be more than happy to act as an image consultant for you free of charge to help you choose the best pictures. I know thats something id enjoy. 😉 😉 x x x
