How to Dress Up Your Little Black Dress

If you've got a little black dress, you can wear it almost anywhere. However, you'll need to dress it up differently to make it work. Here's how to do that.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. For work, pair your little black dress with nice heels and a jacket. You'll want to be professional, classy, and stylish.

2. For night, pair your little black dress with high boots. Also, accessorize with some fun jewelry. A nice pair of earrings will go a long way with a simple black dress.

3. Pair a simple black dress with a nice, silver or gold belt. This will add a nice accent which makes the dress work for a dinner with friends or another evening event.

4. If the dress is the appropriate style, pair it with ballet flats and leggings for a casual daytime look.

5. Wear a fancy, layered necklace with the dress. If you do this, keep your other accessories simple. You don't want your accessories to become overwhelming.

6. Add color to your little black dress. Wear red shoes and carry a red purse to add a splash of color to an otherwise simple outfit.

7. Add a pin to your dress to create a focal point. Accessorize with simple bracelets for a great look for a casual evening event.

8. Pair the dress with an open sweater for a casual look. Pair with shoes that match the sweater for a cohesive look.

Tips & Warnings

• If you accessorize, don't overaccessorize.
