How to wear the LBD (Little Black Dress)

We all own our fav LBD and no doubt adore it. But I don't know about you but sometimes I look at it and think, "I wish I could wear it more often". And I do, because it's such a  lovely dress! So, that's why I've written this little article on different ways to wear your little black dress if you are struggling. Your LBD shouldn't just be for one occassion, make it fit all! And here I am going to show you how.

So here is a nice halterneck black dress from Top shop for £30. It's really simple but so cute!




Casual Daytime

For the casual look, there's lots of little accessories with a nice bag and flats. Heels can overpower the casual look sometimes and I feel this outfit is casual yet pretty. Light colours such as pinks, blues, yellows, and greens look nice with black, and we all know pretty much anything goes. Darker colours give more of a dramatic look and so by using pastel colours it's sort of tones it down and gives it a spring feel too.



Where to find:

Scarf £16, Shoes £12 - New Look, Bag £15, Earrings £6, Necklace £8, Flower Corsage £3 - New Look, Bracelet £6


Spruce it up - Night time

This look is perfect for going out with mates on a night out and is when the LBD really shines. As I said before, darker, more dramatic colours, make the LBD stand out and so teaming the black dress with bright or deep colours looks awesome. Falsh eyelashes give extra glamoour and the belts nip your waist in if you feel concious about it. Add some killer heels and you have an amazing look.

As you may have seen recently, nautical blue red and white is all the rage at the moment and so here are some ideas to get you into the sailor girl mood. It's little accessories like cherry necklaces, stripes and bows which make this such a cute look and can be worn either going out or for the casual look.
