Yes, I’m talking about the ‘buzz’ of this summer’s craze with black and white.
It’s BUZZING around everywhere . . .
And,
I like it!
It’s so clean, and energizing, and well striking.
Some of my great blogger friends have been busy as bees and just Buzzing around in their mix of black and white. Take a look at what Jan (here) from Fort Smith Stylista came up with, then buzz on over and visit Ann (here) from Blue Hue Wonderland, and then if you really want to have some fun, go on over to Tamara’s black and white party (here). And, today Greetje with no fear of fashion totally rocked the black and white with her version of tuxedo pants, check it out here. I also notice Heather joined in the buzz with her black and white maxi (here). Now that’s enough to make any gal ready to join in the ‘buzz’ of things.
The shoes were kind of buzzing that I needed to try a more fibrant look.
See, I really can walk in them.
I don’t know if you have caught the ‘buzz’ yet but I kind of like this summer craze.
I even decided to bring some inside for a new tablescape.
It’s just ‘buzzing’ with energy:)
Have you joined this black and white party yet?
As always, thanks for dropping by. Have a wonderful day.

The hum of bees summer looks great on you and you look beautiful with it. I like this look, it’s a beautiful suit jacket. I like the green blouse, but with the red also works. Your shoes are lovely and the bag is cute. I really like your hairstyle, and your figure looks wonderful with this oufit.

Well, you just made my day. It’s always a great compliment when an outfit compliments a women’s figure, haha. Sometimes the hard work pays off.

I love everything about this look, head to toe – fantastic!
trinagrandinetti says
Oh, thank you, thank you!
Patti @ NotDeadYet Style says
Wow, you are owning the black and white, Trina! Love these looks, and thanks for sharing them with Vis Monday xoxo
trinagrandinetti says
I don’t know about owning but I sure like participating in the party. Thanks again for a fun get together.
Dawn @ AlterEgoMexicana says
Damn, girl! Stripes are such a hard sell for me personally…but you rock that look! Great pops of color…plus the platforms are killer! Looks like you’re jaunting about Paris!
trinagrandinetti says
I sure wish I were (jaunting about Paris), someday . . .
Suzanne says
Wow I am in love with your bag! What a find : )
You really carry this off. The green top is nice but the red really pops against the stripes.
bisous

I was so excited about my bag find. “Around the corner is the cutest anique store in Omaha, Nebraska and the two women that own the shop are a complete delight. My daughter and son-in-law recently moved there to attend dental school at Creighton University and on my last day of helping with the move I decided to go find some local antique stores. I was in Omaha heaven. Can’t wait to return.

You just couldn’t do without the color, could you? Good for you! That’s the next and very cool step! Lovely all version. Cute shoes, everything. Those stripes were made for your bottom half, and I’ll be shocked if your huz is not over the moon (no pun intended) with this look! Lovely!
Thanks you so much for the shout out … you’re a sweet girl!
Have a great week, Beauty!

Love the fit on this outfit. This skirt just sizzles my dear! I adore your bag and fantastic shoes, patten leather is so hip for summer. This combination shows you figure beautifully.
Thanks so mentioning my b/w post, this is so appreciated.

Thank you for allowing me to do so. I do love it when I can find a treasure at antique stores.
The Style Crone says
You have inspired me to focus on black and white, along with the other blogger beauties. Your stripes are delicious, and the shoes extraordinary!
trinagrandinetti says
I look forward to seeing what you come up with, especially the black and white hat.
nofearoffashion says
Well….. this is very good. The striped suit looks very chic, but in fact it shows off all your good points, your legs, your bum and all other good points (….LOL…).
What a swell suit. You saw my striped jacket in May, so you know how much I love this look.
As for the bag and the shoes…. YES please. Gorgeous. Your choice of shoes is really much more modern than mine.
Tip (as if you need one): yellow and lime is also very nice with black and white. Oh and purple. And bright blue… too much really.
trinagrandinetti says
I totally forgot about your wonderful jacket, I just pulled it up again. I’m going to copy that outfit to the T tomorrow for my lunch date with friends. Love it! Thanks for all the fun ideas.
nofearoffashion says
Likewise.
Lady of Style says
Very, very nice look, Trina!
Somehow classic and trendy at the time time.
I really love it.
