What I Wore: Any Day, Everyday Little Black Dress Worn Two Ways

You gotta love a little black dress. Dress her up or down, wear her anywhere around town, this wardrobe workhorse has saved me from countless wardrobe meltdowns. Today’s dress was a second hand find – though I would swear it was never worn. My jacket, also a thrift find. Both pieces are classic good ‘ol DVF. My daughter convinced me I NEEDED these darling kitten heel suede bow pumps to wear with my black and grey looks. With a pop of color, I am loving suede shoes for spring. I started the day wearing my jacket over the dress, with a rose gold/white necklace from J Crew. However, I found when the jacket came off, I needed a bit more color on my top half to balance out the pink shoes – that’s when the triple strand pink beaded necklace came out. An Anthropologie find, I love how it brought some color to today’s look and added a “girly” feel. 

Do you ever start the day in one look, then change it up as the day goes on – preferring the end result better? Sometimes my creative brain isn’t fully turned on in the morning and my outfits evolve throughout the day. Which combo is your favorite? Outfit One or Outfit Two? Let’s take a look!
