It's chaotic out there — holiday shoppers grabbing whatever's left on the shelves, panicking about what to get their mom, their sister, or that late RSVP-er. But you? You're as calm as a cucumber, because you've figured out a trick to finding the perfect gift, last minute or not. It's called sticking to a black colorway, and it makes total sense: black is a neutral color almost everyone loves, and buying black clothes, accessories, or shoes pretty much ensures the piece will be versatile and worn frequently. Not to mention it decreases the odds it'll get returned.
Scroll through to view and shop stylish items that are bound to be a hit. Then gather some all-black outfit ideas, in case you end up buying a little something for yourself, too.
