How To Wear Black

I�ve had a bit of an obsession with wearing black clothing since moving to NYC, and I�m not completely sure why.

On the sunny West Coast, I never wore black. I owned one pair of black chinos which rarely saw the outside of my closet. I only recently bought a pair of black lace-ups for formal occasions.

Even though I�ve written many times about not
defaulting to black, there�s something about the city that inspires you to wear it. Maybe it�s that gritty, concrete jungle vibe, or perhaps Lemari pakaian minimalis it�s the onset of winter.

Either way, I�ve been experimenting, and in case you want to as well, here are some pointers.
