Everyone needs a little black dress. Seriously.
It’s that one go-to piece in your closet when you have somewhere to go unexpectedly and “have nothing to wear”. It’s the dress that you can dress up or down depending on the accessories. Although I truly believe this:
…I still feel that you need a black dress. I scoured the Interwebs to find some great options – all under $100!
Here are my fave casual black dresses:
On to the cocktail dresses (all still under $100):
One LBD is the foundation for so many different outfits. Most of the dresses above can be paired with pearl studs and closed-toe heels (and maybe a cardi or colorful scarf) for the office and OR a cool statement necklace and a fab pair of stilettos to go out at night.
I use my accessories is to add that pop of color needed to bring the outfit together.
Do you have a little black dress? If so, what do you pair it with?

Love what you found! I have an H&M LBD that is exactly what you said… something I wear when I have nothing else to wear. Thanks for showing an array of styles! The ASOS one is gorgeous.
Happy Friday!

So sad to hear about the loss of your LBD 🙁 The Macy’s dress is one of my faves!

I don’t do very well with strapless dresses, but I love ASOS! <3
Dana says
I am the same with strapless dresses. I wore one for my Sweet 16 and the majority of the video of the party shows me pulling it up!

Great options! The best thing about a LBD is that you can make it professional for work and dress it up for a night out!
Dana says
Thanks! Exactly!
