Black and white have always been my go-to colors when it comes to clothes, so naturally I&#8217;m happy that it&#8217;s one of the biggest fashion trends this year! But even though the colors are trendy at the moment, if you find the right black and white item, it can easily become a classic in your closet.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/whatshaute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Ronen-Chen-Queens-Dress.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22112\" alt=\"Ronen Chen Queens Dress\" src=\"http:\/\/whatshaute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Ronen-Chen-Queens-Dress.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"650\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWhen emerging designer <strong>Ronen Chen<\/strong> reached out and asked me if I wanted to review an item, I checked out the website and immediately was drawn to the <a title=\"Ronen Chen Queens Dress\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ronenchen.com\/us\/new-spring-collection\/queens-dress.html\" target=\"_blank\">Queens Dress<\/a>! Black and white stripes in a chevron style, plus a sleeveless, slim-fit silhouette and a dramatic V-neck equals the perfect day-to-night dress. I was excited to check it out online, and even more excited when it arrived! The fabric (76% Viscose 20% polyester, 4% Spandex) was super soft and comfortable, and lightweight so I can wear it all summer long. Paired with a blazer, it&#8217;s all business, and paired with the right heels, bag and jewelry, it&#8217;s a great dinner and after dinner dress.<\/p>\n<p>I really can&#8217;t get enough of versatile dresses and this Ronen Chen dress is going to be one of my go-to pieces this summer. And with a black and white canvas, I have endless color options to accessorize it with.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/whatshaute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/black-and-white-dress-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22120\" alt=\"My style: Black and white stripes -
