For the Spring 2013 ready-to-wear collections, it seemed like all the designers decided to get together and make black and white a Spring Thing. Is it just me, or does it seem like black and white just isn't very...springy? I may stand alone, but the fact of the matter is, big bold and beautiful black & white stripes are IN for spring. I'm not talking about teeny little Breton stripes, people. I'm talking bolded, underlined, italicized stripes. Can you dig it?

BRB, gotta go raid my closet...or my nearest mall!
