Black and white clothing options should be a staple to any plus-size closet. They are neutral colors and can be used to build a fantastic wardrobe. However, sometimes, you want a little more dazzle to your ensemble without buying new apparel.

Use Color to Accentuate a Black and White Ensemble

Consider using splashes of color to do the trick. While polka dots can be super attractive alone, you can level up this style a notch by taking advantage of bright accessories like citron (not to be confused with yellow). Any bright shade will make a fantastic contrast…the brighter the better.

Here, I paired a citron San Diego Hat Company hat with a Kate Spade purse. To add extra drama, I rocked dark shades. Buy the Citron hat HERE. It comes in ten shades. The polka dot dress is from Lane Bryant. While no longer available there, you can search for other favorite retailers or try the similar polka dresses below.

Use Accessories to Add to your Plus Size Pizazz

One of the best ways to dazzle solid black and white separates is with a great textured hat. If you are not ready for a splash of colors, find a great hat in a black and white print. My topper is from SHEIN. Shop similar styles by clicking HERE.

The white blouse and black rayon wide leg crops are criminally comfortable and from the Susan Betro label from Zulily as a part of her Simply Susan collection. Both items go up to a size 4x. Shop her designs at Zulily by clicking HERE.
