That Perfect LBD

*Reposting this from 2016 because it’s one of my favorite posts. Hope you enjoy!*

Hello friends and good-bye November! The holiday season is in full swing and December is here. Can’t even believe 2016 is near the end but let’s enjoy this wonderful season with all of its beauty.

When it’s the holiday season, there is surely a need for a great dress. Some parties are dressy and some are more casual but every lady needs a staple little black dress to wear during party season. Guess what? I found one! No, I didn’t find a cocktail type dress but instead one that could be worn to a variety of events.

You might remember that I featured a vintage dress on the blog awhile back. The black dress I featured in that post {here} is what inspired me for this dress.

December 2015

Such a gorgeous dress. Too bad it was impossible to zip up, which makes it difficult to wear! But the replacement is the perfect replacement.

This dress is the YES dress. It’s the one I’ve searched for and finally found. It will not easily be replaced.

The fabric is sturdy enough to hold a great shape and yet “gives” so I can move. The belt can is removable which provides options for other belts or using a scarf as a belt. Lots of options available to remix this basic dress. Zaful provided this perfect piece to me. You can find it {here}. I am wearing a small.

I love the option to wear this dress with or without the belt.

Zaful has many other options for great black dresses. Please stop by and see if you can find your perfect one. By the way, even though I look like I’m scowling I’m not but the sun is causing me to squint.
