Taylor Swift Reminds Us That All Black — With Red Lips — Is All Chic

On her way into David Letterman's NYC studios, an all-black-clad Taylor Swift posed sweetly for the cameras.

On her way into David Letterman's NYC studios, an all-black-clad Taylor Swift posed sweetly for the cameras. Only this time, unlike most of her dainty looks, she kept it superchic in a black short-sleeved tee, black cropped trousers, and low black pumps. Her signature red lips and matching red nails added a much-needed pop of bright color to her look. While colorblocking is a huge trend now, don't overlook the power of head-to-toe black. Mimic Taylor's look by pairing a fitted black tee with cropped black jeans or trousers, then finish off with any black footwear of your choice: flats, booties, or sky-high pumps.

All Black Is the New Black

Sporting an all-black ensemble isn't just a great way to look tougher — or thinner — but it can also be super sophisticated.

Sporting an all-black ensemble isn't just a great way to look tougher — or thinner — but it can also be super sophisticated. OnSugar blog trendy intellect shows us some Fab examples of women in black.

My perusal of numerous online fashion sites and blogs have led me to one conclusion: aside from the mixed neutrals trend everyone seems to be pushing lately, all black has made a rather large comeback (unintentional rhyming, points for me!). You may have noticed that the most common perpetrators have been the Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley. Now if you look below, you'll see I've collected an array of photos of women in black just for you.

Jessica continues to stream stylish looks, both on and off the red carpet. Her attempt at all black while shopping in Beverly Hills proves she's tougher than we think. Her black leather moto vest, silk tunic, faded jeans, and black leather sandals are easy but make a statement. Dainty light purple nail polish and stud earrings remind us she's a girlie girl at heart.

Freaky or Fabulous? Carine Roitfeld, Super Villain

Ralph Lauren threw a big to-do celebrating his Paris store opening last night.

Ralph Lauren threw a big to-do celebrating his Paris store opening last night. Guests included Karl Lagerfeld, Sonia Rykiel, Du Juan, Abbey Lee Kershaw . . . and batwoman! Or by day, known as Vogue Paris Editor Carine Roitfeld. You know me — I love a dramatic getup, especially one involving a cape — and if anyone can smoke it, Carine can. Her smoldering face heightens the hilarity. You with me?

Chloe Sevigny's YSL Noir Gloves: Love It or Hate It?

Chloe Sevigny has a lot of fashion pull — we've long admired her eclectic style.

Chloe Sevigny has a lot of fashion pull — we've long admired her eclectic style. She always stands out at events for going against the grain, showing us something fresh.

Last night, at the Metropolitan Opera Gala premiere of Armida, she opted for a simple black jumpsuit. There's no question she can pull that off, but long noir gloves in April just seem too wintry to me. I'm all about dramatic effect, but I feel like it's a month, or two, too late. That funky gold necklace saves the look, breaking up the all black, but I'd like to see a little more skin — you?
