Another little black dress. I have at least a dozen black dresses, including a beautifully simply maxi dress I plan to wear out to a BBQ this summer. But tonight we were at Burlington Coat Factory picking G up a pair of black pants and I found a Maggy London Dress I fell in love with:
I love black. Simple and classic. It looks good on pretty much everyone, and for me personally it contrasts so much with my pale skin that it makes me glow. (in a good way). And I got the dress for less than 1/3 of the cost of Nordstroms!
Does anyone else have a problem not buying a black dress? (I nearly bought 1 other tonight) Cheap or expensive it matters not, as long as it looks good!
Favorite black dress or memory of one? For me personally I have one dress that now is several sizes too big but I still have it and plan to have it altered down because it's one that I have worn for many special things, including dinner with G in London while we were engaged.
I really should take a photo of the black dress section of my closet....
Actually I am kind of jealous - I have the HARDEST time finding the perfect little black dress. Let alone more than one! :) I did have a most lovely and perfect one that I wore to my wedding rehearsal and loved. Unfortunately it doesn't fit after having my daughter, and I don't think it could be altered to fix the few issues! But I loved that dress. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is funny because I thought I was the only one with "the black dress problem!" I don't set out to shop for LBD's, I just happen on them! I'm happy to hear I have a partner in my addiction. :)
ReplyDeleteA wonderful day to you!

I have only one and it is a strapless Ann Taylor and I love it.
