All black; beyond the little black dress

The all black outfit is an all-time winner. It works as casual wear as well as at a fancy gala, or at the office. It’s also the all-time safe choice, and to pull off a showstopping all-black outfit without blending into the masses can be a bit of a challenge. The LBD might be a timeless piece of art and a perfect go-to at most occasions, but I personally like to stand out a little more and make a bit of a statement. So here are some ways to play with the all black silhouette:

As usual, the little details makes all the difference. I found these highwaisted pants on tobi.com. The shoes and top are from H&M. I think you can still find the shoes there, they have been around for a few years now 😉

Love this body suit from tobi.com. Was inspired to buy it after I’d just realized that one benefit of being flat-chested is that you can never look too busty. Woot!

I chose to add this bralette for an extra detail, but it works just as well to use some fashion tape to keep everything in place 😉 All but the shoes are from tobi.com.

Works perfectly well as a bohemian summer outfit as well.  The slits in the maxi skirt really brings an extra dimension to the look. I got it at Bikbok a few years back. Perfect for Coachella, if you’re going 😉 I will have some bohemian summer looks up in time, just waiting for it to stop snowing over here, haha ^-^”

Just a little something for when your favorite LBD happens to be in the laundry basket just when you need it.
