Little Black Dress: Holiday Edition

Little Black Dress: Holiday Edition

‘Tis the season for holiday parties around every corner. Finding a different outfit for each can cost a fortune, but wearing the same old look is boring.  That’s where the famous little black dress comes in. It’s always in fashion, and with the right accessories you can transform it into a variety of looks. Here, three different ways to rock this fashion icon:

Shoes

Changing up your kicks can garner a whole new look! Ankle boots say trendy, patent leather heels say classic, tall boots without the heel showcase a casual vibe. Or go bold with a red pump, or go girlie with a ballet flat.

Jewelry

Pair your LBD with pearls, diamonds or a statement piece! Each piece of jewelry speaks a style word so choose the one that will best match your look for the event you’re attending. Remember don’t overdo it as the saying goes, “less is more.” Choose one or two pieces of jewelry for your perfect put-together look!

Jacket

A jacket can pull your look together and for the chilly weather surrounding the holiday season it’s important to choose the right one! Sport a blazer to get a professional look. Leather gives an edgy feel, while a sweater jacket softens the look. A jean jacket rocks casual events, while a shawl is more suited for a black tie event.
