There are some basic items that all women need to have in their wardrobe. The Little Black Dress (LBD) is one of those wardrobe staples. In 1926 this dress was introduced by none other than fashion icon Coco Chanel. In this blog I will show you different ways to style this classic and essential beauty!
Date Night
A little black dress is THE secret
weapon that you just HAVE TO HAVE in your wardrobe! You just can’t go wrong
with this classic, especially for date night. Style her with your favourite
pieces of jewellery, a pretty bag and high heels… success is guaranteed!
Casual Everyday
If you think you can only wear your little
black dress on special occasions, think again! Try creating a casual everyday
look by pairing this black beauty with your favourite sneakers or booties and statement
accessories!
Office
It’s no secret that a little black dress
also makes for a great office outfit, Pair her with a jacket and high heels for
a smart and effortless office look. It’s the kind of outfit that will always make
you look professional and takes you straight from the office to after-work
drinks!
Monochromatic
Monochromatic looks are simple, but oh so
stylish. And of course black and white is a timeless colour combination. Pair
your dress with a white or cream-coloured jacket and keep the rest of your accessories
in black and white. Wearing too many accessories in the same bright colour can
be a bit overwhelming, but with black and white… you’re good to go!
Pop of Colour
Get creative and add a touch of colour to your outfit. The easiest and safest way is using only a single accessory in a bright colour that has the greatest impact (just picture an all-black outfit worn with a pair of red high heels). If you like to finish your look with a number of different accessories (for example shoes, a belt, a scarf and a necklace) in the same colour, I recommend wearing a maximum of two or three pieces to keep your look subtle.
A little black dress offers endless
styling options. Switching up a few things will allow you to wear the dress
throughout the day. Simply change your shoes, accessories, make-up and hairdo and
you’re set! It doesn’t matter if you’re dressed for a day at the office or for going
out at night… you are sure to turn heads!
