GIVE LITTLE WHITE DRESSES A CHANCE TOO…

For the longest time little black dresses (LBD) have dominated the style world and they are still a timeless classic. One thing is for sure, they are effortless and looks good on everybody. On days where one is in doubt, an LBD is always a great option. These dresses are appropriate for any event depending on the length. Too short and it can’t be worn to church. Lol! If there is one thing that is certain, its that little white dresses don’t get the credit that they deserve. -And I’m here to make a case for them. Ha!!

Well to be honest, there is no case to be made because LBDs and LWDs are like identical twins, but one is white and the other is black. They’re both great options for any event, equally classic and effortlessly chic. Having said that, there’s always something about wearing white that makes one feel like they just fell from heaven. It is crisp and clean.

I’ve had this dress for over six years. I’m just proud it still fits me because it can only mean that this single mother has been able to watch her weight. That might not be a big deal to you, but it sure is to me. Lord knows that losing weight is a struggle and maintaining it is another struggle. I wore this dress to a good friend’s birthday dinner and felt really sexy in it, especially with those power heels from Zara. It is unfortunately soldout. The bag (soldout) is from Forever 21, but the brand has a similar here.

Much Love!

    Queen of the LWD! Girl you are GLOWING like the gorgeous goddess you 100% are in these stunningly stylish photos! 🙂 This dress is such a dreamy piece, I totally agree that white feels like you’ve fallen from heaven. Never fails as a colour to go-to when you want a fresh look and vibe. Your heels are pure heaven too, I love the black and white design. Zara do some stunning shoes! Adoring your bag and earrings too, the perfect additions to an outfit I’m obsessed with ♥︎
