As the season has shifted from summer to autumn, I’ve been into black and black-and-white looks more than usual. 

Jeweled Collar – Black is the New Black

But to make seemingly basic black feel special, it’s nice to have an extra touch, which is why I love this jeweled collar top by Alice and Olivia. Talk about taking a closet staple — a black top — to the next level. This Parker skirt is also perfect for both meetings, parties and date night as it is both tailored but playful — the perfect combination in my book.

And while I’ve declared that horses are the new black, they have some competition: lions. Are you ready to roar?
