LBD Makeover

Making the items in my closet as multi-functional as possible is becoming increasingly important to me.  It allows for me to use something that I love for different occasions.  It also allows me the opportunity to utilize my accessories that, more times than not, get shoved into the back of my closet known as The Vortex.

One thing that a lot of us have in our closet is the LBD (Little Black Dress).  Whether it's a wear-to-work or a sundress there are various ways that it can be styled.

Cue this Cynthia Rowley dress that I scored at Goodwill.  It's a fantastic dress that I've styled in various ways.  Here are a few looks:

1-Make it Blue

Isn't this scarf gorgeous?!  Another Goodwill find!  It's the perfect pop of color for a plain black (or white) dress.  The scarf received many compliments when I wore it to work.  If you have any scarves in your drawers or closets, bust them out!  Youtube or Pinterest ways to style and tie them.  That's what I did!

2-Two Hats-Two Vibes

Hats are a very foreign accessory for me.  I've always felt self-conscious about wearing one for whatever reasons I've made up in my mind.  But you know what-the mean people only exist in our heads so here I am-wearing hats!

 This a 100% wool hat (from Goodwill) which gives me a more evening/dinner date kind of vibe.  It's a quick way to give a more sophisticated and stylish look to your LBD.  I'll probably wear it more in the fall/winter time. 

The straw hat is also from Goodwill.  This look is much more daytime or perfect for a hot summer evening.  I'm definitely going to be getting a lot of use out of this hat during the season.  

The options of how to style a LBD are endless.  I love to see how you all style one piece of clothing in different ways so don't be shy to show me!  

Hope that y'all were able to take a little somethin'-somethin' from this post! Again-if you don't follow me on instagram you really should!  Find me @CynthiaEdee!

Talk next Sunday!
