Little Black Lace Dress

Updated on Posted on

A few months ago, I showed you how I styled my little black dress for winter. Now that the temperatures are finally warmer, I can start wearing the rest of my little black dresses- the sleeveless and short-sleeve ones. This lace dress from Kristine’s Collection is just what I was looking for to add to my collection. The hem isn’t too short or too long, so I could wear it to work or other fancy occasions, and the all-over lace instantly adds elegance.

While some people go crazy accessorizing an all-black dress or outfit, I like to just add little pieces of color. I decided to rock a red lip and add in some pretty jewelry to spice up the look. Plus, I don’t really own colored heels, so that wasn’t an option.

I’ve had my fair share of terrible jewelry purchases in my lifetime.

In summer, I’m all about denim shorts and sundresses. But every now and then I like to throw something else into the mix- rompers. Rompers are a mix between shorts and a dress and are super comfortable. In fact, most of the times when I wear them, or see others wearing them, I think it’s…
