The Black Dress
My Summer Staple
When in doubt, reach for a black dress, a timeless staple that can save you from countless outfit dilemmas.
I find nothing chicer than a simple black dress when the sun is shining. Dressed up or down it’s a forever chic option. As Karl Lagerfeld once said…
“One is never over-dressed or underdressed in a little black dress.”
When looking to invest in a timeless black dress think about the silhouette and fabric. I love a sheer, satin or lace detail and usually opt for a longer length with a waisted detail. I’ve currently got my eye on this Faithfull The Brand bandeau style.
Add a sandal, loafer or flip-flop plus minimal jewellery and you’ve got a simple but elevated summer look.
