Black and white is a really nice combination which has always worked for me. I have a skin tone which is neither too dark nor too light and it does not even border on the shade of being brown. I think it is understandable then that I have always had a lot of trouble picking out the right dress color for me as most of them always ended up being either too bright or too dull for me. However this one here is just perfect for me as it has a mixture of both the bright and the dark colors.
