My L.B.D.

Happy Monday!

"The little black dress is a uniform for all women of taste." ~ Coco Chanel


Are you tired of destroying your room when you have to go to an event? Are you looking for something to wear to go perfect with your curves, while maintaining sophistication? The solution to your problem is a Little Black Dress aka LBD! I believe that every girl should own at least one.

I know you're probably thinking, "No way, it's too simple. It's too boring. I don't like black," but I promise adding accessories or playing with your make up will add the finishing touches to this classic look.

Owning an LBD is problem solving. It took me 20 minutes to do my hair, makeup and find an outfit when I grabbed my LBD! Normally takes me over an hour (or three). I'm usually destroying my room trying to find the perfect outfit and accessories to match. However, you can't go wrong pairing most accessories with your LBD which reduces your time for getting ready. Not only are they a timeless fashion staple, but they have so much versatility!

It also gave me the perfect shape! All my life I've been pear-shaped which means that sometimes I need a forgiving outfit. Since black is naturally slimming, I find that my curves look absolutely amazing. It's just something about simplicity meeting curves, a match made in heaven for sure!

Black, White & Cheetah

Hi loves,
 
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVEEEE a sexy, sophisticated look. A white blouse under a sweater screams sophistication to me! (I cheated, mine is really one shirt!) Combined with animal print is definitely a match made in heaven!
 
Animal print is one of my absolute favorite classic styles! (Especially anything with a cheetah print). Animal print always adds a sexy touch to any outfit.
 
When wearing animal print, there a few rules you must follow:
  1. You must wear a solid/simple look to allow it  to stand out. Usually best to wear as an accessory.
  2. You must keep your jewelry simple to make sure your animal print is not overpowered.
  3. Add a neutral color to bring out the print, similar to how the animal usually blends well with nature.
See below for how I followed these few simple rules to get the perfect sophisticated, sexy look.
