Black and White with the Ageless Style Link Up
This month’s theme for the Ageless Style Link Up is black and white. I love this classy combination and have worn it several times as you will see at the end of the post. Since I had not worn this black, white and gold tunic in quite a while, I decided it was time for it to reappear on the blog. I think I have had for about 10 years and I think the cut and colors make it a timeless piece. It is nice and stretchy, so it has worked for me when my weight has fluctuated.
Pairing it with white keeps it a fresh spring or summer look and of course, I had to pull my white and black striped sandals for this theme. These are so comfortable and don’t show any signs of wear even after 4-5 years. I really love knowing some pieces in my closet have been around for a while and I love knowing that most days, I am wearing at least one thrifted item.
While my little purse is super cute and I still love it, I have found that some of my smaller, different shaped purses are not very practical for everyday wear. So, I usually either use them on date nights or for pictures.
I’ve been wearing more minimalist earrings recently, so this week I am trying to wear more of a variety. This pair was from Nickel and Suede.
I am so glad these sandals are still comfortable for me even though my feet are more finicky lately. The foot bed is very comfortable and the wedge not too high.
Here are some other ways I have worn black and white in the past!
Below are some outfits I pulled up from the blog in 2020! The tunic made an appearance then!

Gotta love a piece that stands the test of time. This tunic is such a keeper. Love that it has a bit of stretch to accommodate weight fluctuation. Goodness, from one day to the next what I can fit into changes. You accessorized it perfectly with the wedges and the darling little bag. I was tempted to buy a tiny beaded clutch yesterday but I talked myself out of it. Had a trendy tropical theme but it just wasn’t practical. I think your straw bag is perfect for date nights and meeting friends for lunch.
What a pretty backdrop you chose for this photo shoot. Looks like an enchanted forest!

I am like that with jeans: sometimes, they bite into my skin lol! The only time I really wear a smaller purse/clutch nowadays is for that occasional date night. That little area for photos is just an un-developed section of the neighborhood 1 min from my house. I will be sad when they build there.

In love with this black and white look! The frayed hem of the jeans is a cool detail.

I really like that detail and that the jeans are straight not too slim.
