Little Black Dress

I wore the Steve Madden princess coat in black over this classic black dress. I just had to buy the princess coat in black too! It was on sale at Alloy.com, and was offered a discount on shipping. It is more casual than the Bebe one I’ve worn before, and it is able to go with everything I have in my closet.

Today the weather was not too bad. No rain, but still cloudy. I figured I should dress up since tomorrow the office would be closed, and I will be dressed down for work at the stationary store over the weekend. This dress is one of my favorites, and I found at Crossroads Trading Co. I purchased it even though it looked different on the hanger, but I had a feeling it would be form fitting and work with a number of accessories and shoes I owned. The only difference is that it came with belt loops and a leopard print belt, which was okay, but I felt the dress could stand on its own. So far it has, and it has been my go-to pick when it comes to interviews. I have paired it with a silver trench and pearls,  and with a navy scarf with nude pumps. I choose the belt for today because I wanted something edgier. The ring and coat soften up the look, and keeps it office appropriate. Crossroads has never failed me when it comes to finding the perfect little black dress, so I would recommend taking a peak at their selection. There is always something to be found and taken home.
