Major thanks to Modcloth for this super cute LBD, aptly named The Weardrobe Dress.
I'm sure you've seen a couple of the other NYC Conference bloggers styling up their dresses and here's mine:
I realize my photo quality is not so hot, but this was not exactly something I was willing to traipse around the neighborhood in while taking pictures of myself. Not that it's not totally cute, it's just that it's 1 o'clock in the afternoon on a Monday in central Pennsylvania.
Anyway, I digress ... this is how I styled mine - how would you style yours?
Vintage brooch from Marnie's jewelry - Dress: Courtesy of Modcloth - Tights: Target, $3 - Shoes: Payless, $20 (years ago)
I decided to take a vintage spin on it, but still keeping it simple. I added a vintage brooch for just a little glitz and patterned tights. I'm usually terrified of patterned tights, but I actually surprised myself when I pulled these on. I love the way they look with the black dress and pop of of the white shoes. I have to be honest, though - the dress is quite a bit snug on me, so I ended up taking the hem up a couple of inches. It's such a cute design, but just not enough fabric to handle all the cargo on the lower deck, if you know what I mean.
Sooooo ... how would you wear this LBD?
That is SO cute on you!! I love the tights. I'd probably do tights too...maybe some knee high boots and on on the dozen blazers I own thrown over it!
ReplyDeleteADORABLE, Kyla! I'd wear it with a long camel cardigan, thick black tights, my over-the-knee cognac-colored boots and the Stella & Dot Garden Party chandeliers and Selma brooch cuff (OF COURSE!).
ReplyDeleteYou look fantastic. I would wear it with bare legs and to-the-knee black boots with a heel, or my pink ankle boots with kitten heel. Since I've been discovering scarves lately, I'd also add a colorful chiffon number at the neck!
ReplyDeleteThe patterned tights were a very good call. I'd do it up with knee-highs in a bright colour and a tweed blazer, I think.
ReplyDeleteLove the way you styled this! It definitely says vintage chic :) I'm not quite as brave with hem length so I'd probably go with some opaque tights in a bright color (fuschia, red or yellow perhaps?) and let those gorgeous details on the dress speak for itself!
ReplyDeleteI would definitely do the tights. It's a bit too short for me. Then maybe boots and a long sweater jacket.
ReplyDeleteYou wear this look SOOO well; I love the tights and vintage feel. Adorable. And thanks so much for the sweet comments on my blog...it's nice to know I have some people in my corner! :)
ReplyDeleteYou look totally adorable! I'm sure how I would do mine...but it would be layer-tastic! Lots and lots of layers!

Love how you styled it! It's such a versatile dress - so classically beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOoooooooo, I love those tights with that dress!!! You look so very Audrey Hepburn.
ReplyDeleteSo cute, I love the texture of the tights!
ReplyDeleteThose are great tights! Since it's all sorts of chilly here, I woudl be tempted to wear tights and maybe a thin sweater underneath- so it's more of a jumper. Otherwise, cardigan city!
ReplyDeleteCute! Love the tights with this look. I still haven't styled mine!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I did see the shoes--they look great. :)
