BrandNeuSense Fashion Blog

Rumi of Fashiontoast, among my favorite independent fashion A-listers in the blogosphere, never fails to inspire. Check out some of these recent outfits spotted on her blog.

Black never fails, indeed. In the past we, here at Brandneusense, had a series on Classy and Black Neutrals with some suggestions on how to accessorize them. Rumi, however, shows us that sometimes, black pieces need not a lot of accessories to work, you just have to be comfortable with them as you are with your own skin.

I love Rumi’s casual, very relaxed at the same time edgy style, and today, after browsing through her recent blog posts, I find myself rummaging through the Brandneusense catalogue for sexy black pieces of clothing.

Check out these Fashiontoast-inspired pieces we have in our catalog:

1. Long Sleeved Placket Top Jet Black. Take a unique concept for the most loved color (or lack of color) BLACK! This long sleeved top makes black all different. With exceptional design in shoulder seams, asymmetrical hem panels, raw edges, it is true that this top is unique above all black tops. This long sleeved placket top comes with the silver beaded placket, which is actually hand-beaded and is made in 100% Rayon.

2. Flying V X Back Top Jet Black from Religion. This shirt has attitude, just like you do. It has an electric guitar printed in white against black on the front, and wait ‘til you see the back of it – there’s a bit of fabric missing there, but we reckon that you won’t mind. Bring sexy back, literally, with the Flying V X Back Top.

3. Mix Chain Top Washed Black Ladies from Religion. Washed black sleeveless top with beaded design on the front. Perforated detail incorporated into the design. Other features include a V-shaped back with three chain detail and chain trim to the neck. Match with black leggings and heels for a chic yet edgy look. 100% rayon.

Pair them up with:

4. Pandora Beanie Black from Hooch. Beautiful and stylish plain black ladies beanie with gold Hooch logo. Features small star pattern throughout the beanie, it also has matching scarf available. This beanie is practical and fashionable and not at all expensive.

5. Women’s Covert Thong from Smuggling Duds. Featuring the design registered Smuggling Duds stash pocket with a button closure, and Smuggling Duds branding on the front and back. The Covert Thong is the first entry into the label’s female specific range. It is made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane for ultimate comfort and fit. Available in Baby Blue, Black, and White.

You know how one would wear a red shirt, enter a room and everyone would greet him “Happy Birthday” or, “hey, what’s the occasion!”? That is because red is a festive color, one that undoubtedly stands out anywhere you put it. So here’s a little something (not too flashy with just the right attitude) for an ordinary day. Featuring Brandneusense’s very own Red Shield shirt from our recently launched spring collection, paired with a dark blue jeans, a blue cap, and a belt with blue and red details to complete the look.
