Do you have a black dress in your closet? One that can be dressed up or down? If not, I highly recommend getting one. I don’t really like to make lists of items that you HAVE to have in your closet because everyone’s lifestyle and favorite looks are different. But a versatile black dress? It’s pretty hard to find a woman who couldn’t benefit from having one.
Take this one for example. I’ve also worn it two other ways since I started this blog. Anything you can wear in both June and October just by switching up the accessories is a closet workhorse for sure.
Do you have a versatile black dress? Would you want to own one?
I am not so much a fashion conscious person, but I do have a versatile black dress. Very helpful thing to own. 🙂
Oh wow, you are just having a killer week with your outfits! I really like your layering here with the scarf, blazer and then the leather jacket over the blazer. I’d never thought to layer a leather jacket over a blazer, it seems like a genius way to stay warm! (I’m so going to do this now.) I think I like most of all how you took varying shades of gray and black to create the outfit, but each piece really stands out and doesn’t get lost. I am just loving all of your fall looks!
Thank you for the lovely compliments!
I desperately need a little black dress. There have been far too many occasions where I’ve needed something to wear and thought, “You know, a little black dress would be perfect for this. Tooooo bad I don’t have one.” Haha. I’m hoping to spend some time downtown tomorrow anyway…maybe if I’m feeling ambitious I’ll knock that off my fashion bucket list 😉
The new Burlington Coat Factory (which has way more than coats) is open now if you want to check it out. It’s on State between Madison and Washington.
I have a few black dresses! You can’t have too many, er… right?! 😉
But how many of them do you actually wear?
