The Elegance of Black!

Yesterday, the Golden Globes red carpet was a sea of black. Celebrities wore black to send a powerful message to protest against rampant sexual harassment of women in the entertainment and other industries.

Though regarded as a “safe” option, in this case black “communicated powerful values and ideals [and was] no longer just about beauty and glamour” (as designer Prabal Gurung told Harper’s Bazaar).

Whilst not to take anything away from the message above, for me wearing black is also beautiful and elegant.

Although a safe option, the chances of getting your outfit wrong are not as high – keeping it simple showcases sophistication.

So when in doubt, know that you can count on the elegance of black!
