opposites attract

Opposites attract, yes that saying is very true. Black and white as a color (or non-color?) combination never fails without a doubt. It's clean and sleek, giving any look an overall polished feel. Like Jackie mentioned, Ariel has a beautiful vision and her eye for a complementary contrast is excellent. I still can't believe these photos were taken on a film camera! Fantastic! Creating an all black outfit was not a difficult task; c'mon my name literally means the "the dark one". However, when it comes to an all black outfit, one must always think about the layering combos to give the look some depth.  For this fit, I chose to layer a silk cami underneath a very sheer crew neck top, one of my favorite layering pieces. The OTK socks totally completed the look and looked fab with my vintage wool shorts. Do you ever find that  your best pieces are a couple decades old?

It was so wonderful meeting and shooting with Ariel. If you haven't already, check this girl out! Major love and respect for this inspiring lady! I can only see big things happening in her future.
