LBD with Unexpected Details
Good morning dolls and happy Monday! It is raining here in Orange County and my thoughts are with my kids who I hope are toasty and dry in their school classrooms. When it rains, I just want my kids home with me. I want to fix them hot cocoa, get them in their PJs, and let them watch their favorite shows all day. I still find it so hard to let my kids go and I worry about them all the time. Please tell me I am not the only parent who feels this way? I would consider homeschooling but the kids love their school and it would be so hard to work from home. LOL!
How was your weekend? We had a great weekend as a family. I took my kids thrift shopping and we left the shop with some amazing finds that I can’t wait to show you.
Today’s post is about the unexpected details with a little black dress (LBD). I could have kept this evening look simple but I couldn’t help myself so I added some surprises. With it being winter, it was a no-brainer to add hosiery to my look. The white dots on my tights deliver a whimsical twist to this familiar little black dress. I love that it makes a big statement against the solid dress color. I also decided to wear open toe strappy heels in metallic silver to showcase the dots hose all the way down to my little piggies. There once was a time that exposing your hosiery at the feet/toe area was a fashion faux pas, but now this is a styling technique embraced by some, but not all. What do you think of it?
When it comes to wearing your LBD for your next event — don’t be afraid to think outside of the box. Adding unusual details such as textured hosiery with open-toe heels or sporting a unique handbag or statement earrings, or combining all of this accessories to one color family (which, in my case, is silver metallic) will definitely set you apart and easily update the look of your traditional LBD.
Thank you so much for stopping by and spending a bit of your Monday with me. It means a lot.
