Living in NYC it’s easy to get caught up in a sea of black, white and grey. Though I love to mix color into my looks to shake off the doldrums of a Manhattan uniform I’ve noticed my closet becoming unbalanced toward the bold and the bright. Suddenly, I’m thinking basics again.

These two inspiration boards represent some of the classic shapes I’m aching for in not-so-basic black and white. One idea I’m already seeing for early spring is an entire white/ivory outfit. Not sure I can pull that off but the board below certainly makes me want to try…

What color inspiration are you looking to for spring? Next week I’ll be back with two more colors on my radar — sapphire and lilac.
