According to Urban Dictionary, “the new black” means the new trend or style at the moment. That alone is testament to how amazing and timeless the colour black truly is. No matter how pretty burgundy or olive green are, nothing, I repeat, NOTHING, can replace the majestic colour that is black. Here are the reasons why only black can be the new black.
1- It Goes With Everything
Black is literally the most versatile and convenient colour to wear. Worrying about matching is so overrated – I mean, you can wear black shoes and bags with absolutely anything without a care in the world. And unlike most other colours, wearing black matches everything. Denim, checkered, neon pink – black will always work. Take Morticia Adam’s word for it. 
2- It’s Slimming
Although we’re beautiful in all shapes and sizes, many of us are insecure about our body and black just helps with giving us a slimmer appearance.
3- ANYONE Can Rock Black
Part of the beauty of black is that no matter what colour your skin complexion is, it will still look great on you. This is unlike many colours such as yellow and red, which may not suit everyone.
4- Black Is Both Classy and Casual
A little black dress or a black blazer give you an air of class and formality; a pair of black pants and a black tee are super casual. Black, being a pretty majestic colour, can work both ways and fit your everyday wardrobe needs.
5- It Saves Time
For those used to wearing lots of black, it saves so much time in the morning. All you have to do is open your wardrobe and throw on a bunch of black clothing articles and you’re good to go.
6- Anything Black Looks Amazing
Clothes aren’t the only thing black looks good on. Black nail polish, black lipstick, black hair, hell, even black cars, are aesthetically pleasing. The contrast black creates with any colour makes it have it easy on the eye.
7- It’s a Statement Colour
No matter what it is you choose to have in black, whether it’s an object like your phone cover, an accessory like a statement necklace, or the colour of your clothes, you’ll always be making a statement with black.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why no colour competes with black. Mat7wloosh, black is irreplaceable. Tell them other colours to the left.
