Almost every 'it' color has experienced a period of time when it was proclaimed to be the new black. Bright hues, duller variations, everything has had it's day, but black?
Black is an everlasting constant. No matter when and where someone may announce a color as the new black, black itself never loses it's place or recognition.

As fall is rapidly threatening to transform into winter any day now, the flimsy bright fabrics that were a summer staple flap in the wind as the temperatures drop. Longer sleeves and sturdier fabrics like wool are warranted. The lucky fashionistas closer to the equator probably don't ever have to worry about significant drops, but closets feel it universally.
When the weather switches, collections often take a turn to darker tones for fabrics. Black is frowned upon in the summer because of it's propensity to attract sunlight and thus, heat, but in the colder months, well - that's optimal! But
how do you stand out in a sea of black pantsuits and dresses? It's all in the details. Whether you want an architectural twist with sharp angles and nips in unexpected places (see
Kourtney above, or
Eva below), or you're more of a shine girl with belts and sequins (
Khloe,
Kim,
Olivia), the standout feature is the detail on the outfit. The contrast of one detail to the other is what draws the eye to the outfit (and the pretty face rockin' it!). If your outfit lacks details, but is warm and/or slimming (as black garments often are), make up for it with some killer accessories.
