More than obsessive boot shopping or breaking out the sweater collection, I know fall is really here the day I finally slip into a pair of black tights. There's something about black pumps clicking through piles of leaves on jet black legs that just hums 'AUTUMN'! The pair I'm wearing today are OLGA 100 Dernier tights from Fiore Direct USA. I really like this brand because they satisfy my three most important needs from a pair of tights: they fit well and are durable, they're sheen-less and super opaque, and they're available at a good price point. 

Today I'm wearing my black tights with a matching camel skirt and turtleneck. I love dressing in monochrome becasue it's so slimming and so chic! My black topper gets a little facelift with the addition of some vintage brooches. Though they aren't 'meant' to be juxtaposed their shared circular shape and gold tone make them look like they belong togather. My leopard nahbag adds a little bit of contrast and my classic round shades are a nice nod to the overall vintage feel of this look.
