Little Black Dress for Valentine’s Day

Little Black Dress
When I think of the little black dress, simplistic elegance comes to mind. By definition, the Little Black Dress, otherwise known as the ‘LBD’ is a short black cocktail or evening dress with a simple feminine design and style. It is a closet staple with timeless appeal and has inspired designers over the years to keep it classic. It can be affordable, and it can be expensive. The little black dress can get a bit risque, but can be polished up for any professional setting you may attend. With it’s versatility, you always have the option to find a stylish and attractive balance between the two.

Unlike any other color, wearing black slims and defines your body type. A simple LBD can be worn for any occasion. It can be worn both day and night. These little numbers are seen in board meetings with blazers, and on dance floors at the hottest night clubs. It pairs with every shoe in your closet. You can pair a little black dress with pumps, heels, sandals or wedges. The little black dress can easily be dressed up or down with jewelry, hair style and layers. Did I mention that everyone needs to have a little black dress hanging in their closet?

When it comes to holiday party and date night outfits, by no means do I feel you should limit yourself to the little black dress.  As you can see from my blog posts on previous date night outfit ideas … Cobalt Blue Day-to-Night, Lady in Red, and Faux Fur + Leather, the options are endless.

If you don’t have a little black dress, get yourself one. When shopping, look for a dress that is simple because simplicity equates versatility … and that makes for a real investment piece. Valentine’s Day  is right around the corner, a perfect occasion to bring out that LBD and bling it up. I hope you enjoyed inspiration in my holiday party outfit ideas series. Let me know what you will be wearing to impress your Honey, this Valentine’s Day.

    Hallo,
    Wow,du siehst so toll aus.Ein sehr schönes Outfit trägst du.Das gefällt mir sehr.Damit ist man zu Feierlichkeiten und Festen immer richtig angezogen.Auch die Nahtstrumpfhose passt sehr gut dazu.Aber ,ich glaube,du hast hinten an deinem linken Bein eine Laufmasche.Das war bestimmt sehr ärgerlich für dich,gerade bei sollchen schönen Bildern.
    Viele Grüsse
