The Little White Dress

The little white dress (LWD) is a key piece in your summers wardrobe.  I am always on the hunt for the perfect white dress.  Just as everyone says every girl should have a LBD (little black dress), every girl should have a little white dress as well especially during the summer days because it is such a versitle piece. 

This summer there have been many different takes on this trend... lace skirts, flirty flocks, delicate dresses... the list can go on forever.  When you pick a LWD you want to make sure you pick something with a classic cut, something you can style it in a variety of different ways for many occasions. 

Here are a couple ways you can style your little white dress, make it unique, and make it YOU.
  1. Style it with a leather jacket, a studded bag, and a strappy sandal to play up the rocker chick inside.
  2. Make a statement with a beautiful necklace and some strappy platform heels, perfect for mid-summer parties.
  3. Put on a relaxed denim jacket or cardigan and platform nude sandal for  more of a casual look.
  4. Add a colored shoe for some fun accessories to create a splash of color effect.
  5. Add a light scarf,  neutral bag, and strappy flat sandals for the perfect sunny Saturday look.
  6. Make your LWD nightime friendly with a black blazer, peep toe heels, and a over sized envelope clutch.
When it comes to shopping try to look for pieces that are great basics and they are easy to layer and style into new looks.  Shopstyle.com is one of the best websites I have found to search for whatever I am looking for. Here is the link to some fun little white dresses.

Here are some of my favs.
