if you are wracking your brain as to what to wear for the holidays. think no further than the little black dress. and if your closet is in need of this timeless wardrobe essential then my ootd just might pique your interest. versatile and classic the lbd will take you to the ballet, symphony, or holiday party in style.
today, i’m pleased as punch to partner once again with Halsbrook – an online shopping destination for the modern, sophisticated woman. and guess what? Halsbrook isn’t waiting for Black Friday to usher in their Thanksgiving sale. it starts today with up to 50% off fall styles. like my little black dress from Max Mara.
this three-tiered dress is made from a lightweight crepe fabric that floats away from my body for a flattering silhouette. i’ve taken the liberty of styling mine three different ways. it’s easy to achieve a sophisticated look when paired with heels and classic jewelry. but just in case high heels are no longer friendly to your feet. i’ve thrown in satin sling backs with a kitten heel. block heels are on trend this year. as is velvet. these burgundy sandals will have me ringing in the new year in style.
pearls or diamonds are just the tickets to elevate this lbd to superstar status. but don’t forget sparkly modern earrings are sure to make a statement. accessories are the icing on the cake. don’t forget to bring along a jewel-encrusted clutch. this shimmering handbag adds instant glamor and has just enough room for all of my evening essentials.

Wow Beth, you are a stunner! I love the detail of course the tiers of the dress, and those fabulous plum velvet heels. I am looking for velvet heels, but cant have them as high. Both ways of styling look so elegant, and the faux fur is so fun!
Have a great week!

Love this dress! It is very feminine without being fussy. Once again, you are the Queen of Accessories! xoxo
A real lady for three times in a row.
Three classy and classic options – that dress is beautiful and I’d wear any of the looks. Just perfect.
Pretty dress! It’s classic and you could wear that for years to come and change it up to make it new all over again each time. Lovely!
