After overdosing on color from yesterday’s outfit, my best friend asked me to give an ode to black.  I just about died laughing at the request.  She lives in LA and wears mostly dark shades while I live in NYC and wear mostly colorful brights — it’s quite a comical contrast.  Well boo, this is as good as it’s gonna get: my (almost) ode to black, because it wouldn’t be me without a few pops of neon.
