If you’re not an Instagram user, let me to fill you in! I was on the East Coast in the quaint town of Concord, MA for my sister’s wedding weekend. As you’re well aware, not only does the big day require a thoughtful outfit, but all of the events leading up to the ceremony require one also. Unless you know exactly what you’re in for, it is always a good idea to pack a little black midi dress. Here is why.   Your Significant Other Black matches with everything. If you choose a LBD, you’ll automatically match with your significant other. Couples who dress together, stay together! No really though, if you’re one of those couples choosing black will eliminate the guessing game.     Classically Chic I’ve probably said this 100 times over, but black is tres classique. You will never be overdressed or underdressed in a little black dress, as long as you pack the right accessories! Tone down the look with a wedge heel and stud earrings. Dress to impress with strappy sandals and a bedazzled purse.   […]

As you’re well aware, not only does the big day require a thoughtful outfit, but all of the events leading up to the ceremony require one also. Unless you know exactly what you’re in for, it is always a good idea to pack a little black midi dress. Here is why.

 

Your Significant Other

Black matches with everything. If you choose a LBD, you’ll automatically match with your significant other. Couples who dress together, stay together! No really though, if you’re one of those couples choosing black will eliminate the guessing game.

Classically Chic

I’ve probably said this 100 times over, but black is tres classique. You will never be overdressed or underdressed in a little black dress, as long as you pack the right accessories! Tone down the look with a wedge heel and stud earrings. Dress to impress with strappy sandals and a bedazzled purse.

Midi Modesty

A black midi dress is appropriate for every occasion. Not too short, not too long, look sexy and smart without bearing too much skin. If you’re afraid the midi length covers too much leg, there are ways around that. Choose a figure flattering neckline such as a deep v neck, a halter, or off the shoulder neckline.

You do not want the skirt to “cut off” your legs at an awkward spot – they are already short enough. This is particularly important to keep in mind when you are styling a below-the-knee length garment. It only took me a decade to find a solution to this problem, but better late than never. Let’s talk MESH!     Who would have thought that a mesh panel would be our (short legged folks’) saving grace?! I sure didn’t before trying on this faux leather mesh-paneled skirt. The peek-a-boo panel prevents your legs from appearing cut off, all while creating an edgy look and feel. On the other hand, you do not want your mesh to come off as tacky…style it with caution. I sweetened up the look with a black and white tie-neck blouse – the bow adds a touch of sophistication. Polishing off the look with dainty pearl jewelry and a classic Gucci purse, helped me further balance out the playful see-through detail.   Are you ready to incorporate mesh garments into your wardrobe?!     Shop this Post: […]

In the spirit of fall, I am presenting to you my favorite hue of the season, wine.     Wine, aka burgundy, is one of the few colors that flatters any complexion. The Cumulonimbus Clouds Burgundy Skater Dress is a great option. Featuring a fitted bodice that tappers out to a flirty skater skirt, rock this little number at the office, or happy hour, and feel good while doing it. Aside from the complimentary fit, the scalloped detailing along the sleeves and skirt add just enough cuteness. Although you could easy jazz up this dress with gold accessories, I enriched the color by styling it with wine accessories, starting with faux suede caged sandals. These hot kicks give the ensemble the appropriate amount of edge, and in addition to their good looks, they are flat out comfortable! I polished off the outfit with the Geo du Jour Cutout Clutch – also in burgundy, and threw on my favorite iridescent necklace and earrings.   The next time you go out to wine and dine, consider this monochromatic look!     Shop this Post: Dress (Fit: […]
