How To Revive A Classic Little Black Dress

A little black dress (or LBD) is as versatile as a white top. This symbol of feminine elegance entered the world of fashion thanks to Chanel in 1926. Of course, black dresses were worn before that too. But, if it wasn’t for Chanel, the dress wouldn’t have ceased to be something ordinary and, what is even worse, a symbol of mourning. 

Now you can wear such a dress every day and look stylish without much effort. However, if you need to look stunning and astonishing at a special event, you should simply decorate it with various accessories. For instance, you can wear your LBD with luxurious jewelry if you want to show up at a theater or a fancy restaurant looking like a phenomenal diva. 

So, here are the best ways to allocate your black dress:

Leopard or another animal print.

Go wild! The spectacular and aggressive animal prints match a black dress fantastically – this is one of the best ways to “tame the beast.” Sofia Vergara perfectly combines LBD and animal prints in her outfits. Kim Kardashian wears a black dress with luxurious animal print shoes. It’s time to get rid of the stereotype that only fickle girls use an animal pattern in their clothes. If you wear it with the right design of the dress, you can look very noble.

Sandals with a strap.

The color of such shoes and the width of the matter of the strap. So choose wisely, based on your figure and style. Here are our recommendations:

  1. If you are tall and have long legs, then you can easily wear the combination of LBD with strap sandals without hesitation. 
  2. If you are a petite woman of short stature, then a combination of LBD with sandals is possible as well, but we wouldn’t advise choosing a wide strap. A thin one will not visually shorten your legs. 
  3. However, if you’re a miniature woman who can’t help wearing a wide strap, you should wear flesh-colored shoes.

We hope that following our advice will make you look bewitching no matter what your height is!

Why not add a touch of contrast to your little black dress? However, if bright red shoes are not your style, then try a bright red accessory in the form of a handbag or clutch. You will look spectacular and quite sophisticated. Red is a great addition to black. Georgia May Jagger wearing a modest black dress doesn’t look plain at all, thanks to the bright red shoes with an open toe.

 Red lipstick.

Bright red lipstick with a black dress – what could be easier? Sometimes red lipstick is enough to attract attention. Having a look like this will make you seem to others like a femme fatale. The only things lacking would be poker chips and cards. Nevertheless, femme Fatales need them no more! 

Everything is in black.

Wanna look classy and mysterious? Dress in all black. This is a method that always works and has no contraindications.

Necklace.

A little black dress is a perfect way to show off your favorite massive necklace. Moreover, a massive necklace is the easiest and fastest way to create a unique and memorable image. If you don’t have at least one large, bright accessory, it’s time to get it.

If a massive necklace does not suit you, then choose a simple design. Sometimes less is more.

A Choker necklace is a stylish and fashionable accessory. The best way to wear a choker necklace is just above the collarbone. 

To conclude

There are many ways to spice up your little black dress. The most important thing is to choose the methods that suit your style.
