All B L A C K Everything

Little Black Dress

You can wear black at any time. You can wear it at any age. You may wear it for almost any occasion.” 

—  Christian Dior

 

Little Black Dress

So, I’m obsessed with the color black. Most of my wardrobe consists of black; black leggings, shirts, skirts, dresses, pants, underwear. I mean, it really is a flattering color on everyone. It hides imperfections, makes everything look super clean, a little edgy and always chic.

That being said.

THIS LOOK.

Total day to night.

Keep it super low key during the day. The dress alone, or paired nicely with a cardigan, blazer and even some fun tights.

I have worn it to work before and it worked like a charm; the perfect combo of stylish yet work professional. Do any of you ever struggle to get that trendy but appropriate clothing for work? Because I am so petite I always go through hell trying to find pants that will fit me in length and around my hips and waist. I am so sick of having to alter my clothes!

Petite ladies…suggestions?

Sorry for the rant. Back to the look.

VELVET is very on trend right now. Last month I was looking for a dress for a friend’s Christmas party and I had given up all hope on finding an outfit. We went to several places and could not find a thing! Finally, right when we were walking out of H&M my girlfriend saw this dress hanging by the door. I took the first one off the rack, went to the fitting room and found that it fit like a glove!

How lucky am I?!

I usually find the sizes at H&M to be a little….off. One day I will go in and be one size, the next day it will be something different. Thankfully the first dress I found worked out.

The bangles are my favorite part of this look. I bought the bangle set in India 4 years ago and have not been able to find anything similar in the states. Indian jewelry is so vibrant, chunky and fun!

If I had to pick a ride or die accessory it would definitely be some type of bracelet. I want my whole arm lined/stacked with them. One bracelet can make a different in the whole outfit. Also, I feel naked without them!

Leather Jacket: A black leather jacket screams nightwear to me.  I bought this jacket from BeBe about 7 years ago and it’s still in amazing shape!

 Granted, these days I am on more of a vegan leather kick than anything real, but wear whatever makes you feel comfortable. 

The addition of the jacket, bare legs and the choker takes the look to a whole new level.

I did a club night with “the night look.” It looked amazing and more importantly I felt great!

I think this will be one of those “go-to outfits” for when I am in a pinch and have nothing to wear!

Do you have any outfits that you turn to on the regular? A favorite color?

Happy Wednesday babes!
