    Black is the New Black

    Black is classic and always will be. No matter what your age you can pull off a
    rocker-inspired look with bold black, but be sure you follow these three tips
    and see Cheryl's basic black wardrobe essentials!


    1.

    SMOKEY EYES, NUDE LIPS

    Smokey eyes go great with strong black outfits, but don’t overdo your lips. As a general rule, pick one part of your face to feature.

    2.

    ADD A POP OF COLOR

    Drop a little pop of color to break up the black. It adds a bit of a surprise and somewhere for the eye to go.

    SHOP THE FASHION TIP:

    3.

    MIX IN THE TEXTURE

    Be sure to mix in textured fabric like chiffon or velvet along with the leather.

    Look to Rock for Inspiration

    Joan Jett and Johnny Cash rocked the black. And no matter what your age, you can, too!


    CHERYL'S TIPS FOR BASIC
    BLACK WARDROBE BUILDERS

    A GREAT BLACK BOOT

    We have tons of them but I’m feeling our Boogie Boot in black at the moment. It’s a sexy little bootie. For a taller boot, choose the Almost Famous in all black or the Long Tall Sally - both are classic.

    A CLASSIC CONCHO BELT

    Yes, they are an investment, but trust me, your grandchildren will fight over it. My pick is this vintage slotted concho with a black strap. It is well proportioned and will stand the test of time.

    A GOOD BLACK TOPPER

    I can’t tell you how many gals have told me they wish they wouldn’t have gotten rid of their boleros. Our Les Gauchos in black is our version of Argentinian classic. It’s a traditional silhouette with a bit of spiciness, and a lot of mood.

    A GREAT FITTING PAIR
    OF BLACK PANTS

    Everybody needs a great black pant that fits well and travels well and one that you can throw in the washer without worrying it will fade. Our Rayado pant and legging do all, plus the spandex adds a little smoothing and shaping right where we need it
