The Little Black Dress

I was trying to piece together an outfit for a girls night out last weekend. I should have known The Little Black Dress was a no-brainer choice. Every woman should have one, or five or even ten. When shopping for the perfect outfit one can never go wrong with buying another fabulous LBD. It may be little, but it's a powerful wardrobe must-have.

Around for decades, this dress will never go out of style. It can be worn plain or jazzed up with big and bold jewelry. A favourite style of mine is to go minimal on the jewelry and wear a bright pair of stilettos or simply bright red lipstick. Hair up or hair down, it doesn't really matter because they won't be looking at you, they'll be looking at your LBD.

It's classy, sexy and slimming... what more do you want?

I'm always up for wearing something a little edgy or daring. So here are some one-of-a-kind LBDs that I could see myself wearing to any fancy event.











Charlize Theron is the epitome of sex symbol. She can pull off everything and anything in great sophistication and that is why she is one of my style icons.





Now this is what I call EDGY!! I would really wear this, but maybe not with as much eye makeup.







The one who started it all, Audrey Hepburn.


I can't take my eyes off of this dress. Wow.








Chanel runway





The LBD can be worn in every season. Once the weather cools down, opt for long sleeves and pair the dress with plain or pattered leggings. A sexy pair of leggings can instantly up the outfit.

I can't pick a favourite, can you?
