A Diva State of Mind

A friend of mine hit me up on gchat last week to ask about blazers. She was trying to decide between purchasing a grey or black boyfriend blazer. I suggested she go with black. It’s a staple and she’ll get more wear out of it. She can purchase the grey blazer in a few months just in time for Spring. She then asked if she could wear a black blazer with black jeans. My answer: ABSOLUTELY!!!

A few months ago, I co-hosted an event at The Park and I wore an all black ensemble: Black jeans, black blazer and black top. It’s all about how your all black ensemble is styled that determines if the look is a hit or a miss.

So for those of you ladies wondering how to style a black blazer with black jeans, here are a few suggestions:
