Black is usually not a color that I reach for in the summer, but there is something about this black maxi dress that has me changing my mind. It is the perfect blank canvas. I actually wore this dress to travel to Toronto and it was perfect. I was able to layer it while in the chilly planes but once I landed in Toronto and it was hot, it kept me cool enough. Best of both worlds there!
For this outfit, I went all out summer with my accessories. I started with a fun and bright tassel necklace. Then add probably my favorite summer bag from Spartina 449. Seriously, how cute is it? Finally I topped it all off with a great panama hat that I pretty much want to wear all the time.
Do you wear black in the summer?

Thank you Andrea!
Haha! I’ll take credit for that 🙂
You most certainly should!
It really is a fun combination!
Ha, I’m sure I’ve said it in your presence a time or two 🙂 I’m starting to think that black in summer isn’t a bad idea!
There really is!
Thanks Elise! It really is a perfect blank canvas.
