Hello and warm greetings, my friends! Today''s March? Recommends is a little bit dark! If you know me, you know I love a healthy dose of dramatic black - both in my interiors and the clothes I wear on my back. My mum was known to say I always looked like I was about to attend a funeral, but no, no, no - it''s just that black can be so very slimming and tr?s chic, am I right? Okay, let''s get going to the dark side!

In today''s Wear This There we''re heading across the pond to London and dropping into Paradise Soho, a cafe with brutalist but somehow cozy decor serving Sri Lankan cuisine. We''re dressing in our best version of a feminine tomboy in a leather jacket over a fun black graphic tee and flouncy pleated skirt paired with my favorite modern ballerina flats, hip belt bag, beaded bracelet, and black reading glasses. For this overnight sojourn, don''t forget to pack your overnight bag with your chicest pj''s and toss in Cereal''s London Guide -- London''s one of those cities that''s constantly updating itself, so read up, and off you go! For the full story, visit the blog.

As I said, we''re visiting the dark side today, so I''ve rounded up a few beautiful and very noir home accessories -- either for yourself or the loved ones on your ''black list''.
1. The Astier de Villatte Marguerite Pendant Lamp makes me very happy because its shape is so feminine and the black cord and hardware are much more unexpected and vintage-inspired than most pendants.
2. This Black Clay Vessel is handmade in Oaxaca in southern Mexico. The cool, matte black color is the result of a natural oxidation process, free of chemicals, lead, or glaze. All natural, all gorgeous.
3. These are my personal favorite Decorative Black Glass Beads (they''re on my coffee table right now!). Uniquely beautiful and all handmade.
4. Well, this sign is very timely, is it not? From Schoolhouse Electric, Please Wash Hands is a darling reminder to fight this darn virus!
5. From my favorite artist, Rikkianne Van Kirk comes this sentimental art print aptly entitled ''Hold''. Such a romantic gift idea.
6. Extracted from the Almacega tree of the Amazon Rainforest, and often used in healing rituals Incausa Breu Resin Incense invites positive energy and deflects dark spirits. From ABC Carpet & Home - (my favorite NYC store!) sounds about perfect for 2020!
7. The shape of L'Objet's Timna Bowl had me at hello! The organic silhouette is created by teasing and shaping the porcelain by hand as it dries, showcasing the label's dedication to celebrating one-of-a-kind artisanal craftsmanship.
8. I''m a huge fan of Tatine''s Tisane Candles and they make the most perfect hostess gift. Did you know each abstract essence represents a different cherished rock song, mood, or place? True Story - a lyrical interpretation of memories, moments, music, and emotions, and this one''s called Wild Mountain Honey.
