The Black and white trend is huge for spring 2012. Designers from New York, Paris, Milan and London paired black with white on their spring 2012 runways and showed the neutral color combination on both classic garments as well as in color blocked “of-the-moment” ensembles. While wearing black and white is considered a classic combination, the two tone look is hotter than normal this season and provides the perfect contrast to the season’s bright colors and sweet pastels.

Black and white is popping up in every way imaginable for the spring 2012 season. Designers are showing black and white shoes, handbags, jewelry and of course apparel. Black and white ensembles can be worn alone, or they can be spiced up with a bright orange handbag or cobalt blue pumps.

No matter how black and white is worn, whether color blocked, alone or spiced up with one colorful item, the black with white trend is hot. So hot, that black and white was also spotted on a few fall runways, showing the world that this trend is here to stay through the year. Love that!
