Stockholm-based marketing exec Bria Jones finesses late-summer style with black and white simplicity--and I'm inspired to follow suit, starting with her crisp white sheath, above, and the gingham (also ), last pic. More monochrome to work magic: this wear-with-everything terry top, this billowy slip dress, this black blazer (I love how she wears nothing underneath it!), this baby doll midi, and these classic black trousers.
