We all swear by the Little Black Dress and fervently acknowledge the significant role it plays in our wardrobe. But, let’s be honest, finding the perfect LBD is not easy. It can take years of searching, sifting through scores (I mean crores) of options, deleting fashion apps from our phone in frustration and even hunting through flea markets. Truth be told, I haven’t found ‘the one’ yet. Yes, I’m not even kidding – my go-to LBD doesn’t exist!
With all the attention, we bestow upon Ms. Perfect, it’s natural for the LWD to feel insecure. So, let’s talk about the Little White Dress today. (Also, ignore my exaggerated praise, it’s just to make Ms. Left Out feel loved!)
Classic, Chic! Flirty, Fun! An effortless style that will have you feeling fabulous wherever you go! A LWD is the Rory to LBD’s Lorelai (Yes, I hugely fangirl Gilmore Girls! Deal with it). Basically, your closet will not be whole without a little or long white dress!
What’s more? when the temperatures are soaring high and wearing black feels like you’re a magnet for heat waves – you’ll undeniably go for that pretty white number hanging in your wardrobe. While it may be your go-to summer staple, it’s a definite must-have that can be styled in endless ways all year round!
So, get rid of the notion that the LWD plays a supporting role – It’s a heroine!
Here are some simple ways to style this versatile beauty:
1. Heard of white on white? Pair a casual white blazer and snowy pumps for a chic office look
2. Change your step with a change of footwear! LWD’s look just as great with loafers as they do with stilettos
3. Who said white is a symbol of innocence? Add an edge to your outfit with a black biker jacket and studded heels! Or maybe even a camouflage coat with military boots!
4. What’s your pop of colour? Wear something bright, loud or graphic to make your LWD more playful!
5. White is an elegant choice, but pair it with simple neutral shades of tan, chocolate and camel and see how it transforms into a classic day-time piece.
6. Want to wear white with gold? Go for it! Bring out your inner Greek-Goddess with gold accents in your accessories, bags, belts and shoes!
