The Perfect Little Black Dress For The Holidays
Normally I am not one drawn to black, but when it comes to the perfect little black dress even I succumb to the sexy, elegant, classic allure of black.
The little black dress never goes out of fashion.
I often search for a LBD with a tiny bit of the unexpected, something unique that’ll make the dress stand out.
6 Little Black Dress Suggestions
Lace & Bows
The design on the lace overlay of this dress drew me in. Did you notice the great peek-a-boo hemline? So unusual and unique.
Fit & Flare Little Black Dress
A vintage inspired little black dress with rhinestone buttons and a tulle petticoat attached. Very Audrey Hepburn.
Embellished Neckline & Lace Little Black Dress
This is such a pretty piece. Again it is the little details in the feather-like embellished neckline with sequins and frayed ribbon that drew me in.
Authentic Vintage 1950’s Velvet Floral Embroidered Little Black Dress
If this dress fit me you know I would not be selling it. This is a real heirloom piece.

Authentic Vintage Black Velvet Wiggle Dress
I adore this dress! It is so well made. It has boning inside the bodice. It is the only dress I can wear strapless without fear of a major wardrobe malfunction. I’m showing it with the straps here, but it is even sexier without them. This is a Jessica Rabbit dress for sure.

Embellished Neckline Little Black Dress
This is very understated and classic but the neckline is lovely. It is covered in beads, sequins and small stones. The cut is very flattering as it shows off the shoulder area and lightly skims the rest of the body.
Embellished neckline LBD available now size 6-10
What about a metallic maxi skirt instead of a LBD?
A full skirt paired with a sweater is a great alternative to a little black dress. This is such a glamorous unique look.

Same idea but in olive green with metallic bronze…so wonderful!

Are you a fan of little black dresses for parties? Or do you prefer to stand out in some pattern and colour?
Personally I am more apt to choose black if I want to come across as “serious and elegant”. If I’m after my usual “artsy and unusual” I most often choose colour and pattern.
Here are a few other little black dresses I’ve picked out.

How To Style A Maxi Skirt For Fall
Have you given in to wearing maxi skirts yet? They are as comfortable as wearing PJs.
They are great for fall as your legs stay warm. If it is extra cold you can layer some tights and boots underneath.
This is one of those pieces that I stumbled across while thrifting where it is entirely possible I let out a little squeal when I found it, a floral embroidered velvet maxi skirt.
Floral + embroidery? YES!
I’m telling you right now this will not be making an appearance in my Vintage Etsy store. Not until I tire of it at least.
Have you been watching West World? I’m addicted to that show and have a feeling I may have been inadvertently influenced by the costume design. Yes it’s western wear, but I’m talking more about the shapes of the clothing. A long skirt on the lower half and a tighter bodice is so flattering. I find it very feminine. It is a silhouette I repeat often.
I wore this out to a recent blogger meet-up where I had the chance to meet Deborah and Lona. It was great to meet some 40+ blogger’s from Ontario. There aren’t many of us out this way.
It was interesting as we each have very specific unique senses of style, totally different from each other.
Sorry folks, I was a very bad blogger and didn’t take any photos. None of us did. I guess we were all taking a day off.
Here are some other ways to style a maxi skirt for fall.

Olive Green Maxi Skirt In Suede For Sale – waist 27″
Some of these maxi skirts don’t fall all the way to the ground. It makes it much easier to walk, especially when going up or down stairs. They aren’t quite as elongating when worn a bit shorter but you are far less likely to do a face plant.
Are you keen on maxi skirts for fall?
