There’s nothing more classic than a Little Black Dress. And, best of all in my book, once you find the perfect one, it lasts for years to come.
So, what are the credentials for a perfect LBD? First off, you’ve gotta show a little skin. While I typically keep things pretty coy, a LBD is the perfect piece to wear on classy dates {like the rooftop of NoMi where these photos were taken}, a cocktail party, or a night out on the town. While this plunging neckline is a little more than I usually opt for, the capped sleeves make the overall look not too showy, and perfectly polished.
Second, a LBD has to be short…ish. While a maxi dress is fly for the summer, an LBD is best when you’re showing off a little leg too. I bought this number years ago at Express, and it’s still one of my favorite dresses today. It hugs me at all the right places while being ultra comfortable. A win-win in my book! Paired with my grandmother’s vintage Gucci clutch and some stripy sandals, I’m ready to hit the town!
