Florals for Spring? Groundbreaking. We’re going bold with one of the biggest fashion trends this season – black and white. In a complicated world, there’s something reassuring about a clean, simple color palette. The Dolls were styled by one of our favorite local boutiques, Kiz Chicago for some on-trend Spring fashion. The overall style aesthetic is modern, darling and badass all at the same time.
Spring fashion is here and the black and white color palette is here to stay. Caitlin is wearing a cap-sleeve eyelet dress, one of the many Kiz has in store this season – available for $105. Danielle is wearing a must-have black dress with deep-v illusion – available for $69.
Even Karl Lagerfeld once said, “black and white always looks modern, whatever that word means.”
Kiz is Chicago’s hottest new contemporary women’s clothing store located right on Division St. with a constant inventory of fresh, must-see women’s clothing
You will often see fashion editors and executives wear head-to-toe black and white. It’s a sleek statement of perfection. Psst! It’s also a full-proof look. Seriously, it’s so rare to see a fashion faux pas in this uniform.
How to wear this look: You want to keep your look totally monochromatic with maybe one pop of color – we like adding this in with mirrored your sunglasses or even a bright bag.
Bonus– We met some adorable pups at the dog park! They were so on-trend with our black and white vibe we had to take them for a stroll.
If you can’t help accessorizing, choose a statement piece in, yes, black or white. We love a bold necklace or earrings in this case.
Your shoes should stay in a similar color palette – black or white. We also always love to have a trendy neutral on hand – gold cuffs and lace-ups are dependable showstoppers and closet investments.
Now… Let’s GO! Spring is calling. Adventure awaits.
Head into Kiz Chicago to shop their entire Spring collection!

Heather lawrence says
I love the simplicity of black and white but honestly in the spring I am all over the pastels and bold bright colours. With all the snow and ice I shy away from white until closer to summer.
Dollhouse says
Thanks, Heather! Pastels are so beautiful we love them for Spring too. XO

You can’t go wrong with classic black and white. I have to admit I was a little distracted by the beautiful blue skies in your photos.

Pairing the nude shoes with the black and white outfits for spring is a great idea! I love the thought of having this as an option because some days I just don’t feel colorful.

Hi there, I enjoy reading through your article. I wanted
to write a little comment to support you.
Alprazolam says
Whether it’s prints, stripes or colour blocking, working the monochrome look is so easy, there’s none of the worry of wearing colours that don’t compliment each other. Black and white make the perfect partnership.
Dollhouse says
Thanks, Doll!
