The Craze is a trend report bringing you the latest (and, duh, the greatest) in beauty and style.
Black and white: It's one color combination that never goes out of style and works in any season. But if you're not careful, it can get a little boring and uniform-like.
In one of Elle.com's latest trend reports, we see clothes, shoes and accessories in "Graphic Black and White." What we love about this trend is how versatile it is: You can pair a black and white piece with practically any color and it pops. That being said, we took the liberty of combing through a few sites and stores to see what graphic black and whites they offer that won’t break the bank.
Forever 21 printed skirt
This graphic print skirt from Forever 21 has a very similar pattern to a Oscar De La Renta dress from the 2010 resort collection, but it’s only $11.50!
Forever 21 cropped jacket $27.80
Another Forever 21 find is this cropped jacket. Now, bows aren’t always done properly, but something about the simplicity and lines of this piece say Chanel. Pair it with some jeans, a white tee and a black boot or ballet flat to get that effortless, well-put-together look.
For those of you who want to take the plunge in your pocket, here are a few splurges we found at Nordstrom.
BCBG MAXAZRIA dress $117.90
Tory Burch dress $395
Some of these pieces may be a little skimpy for February, but keep in mind that spring break and a warmer Syracuse are just around the corner!
