It's a fashion fact . . . the LBD is a classic statement. But to be honest I don't have enough of these sexy little black numbers in my life! There is something really wrong with this situation. Especially around the holidays, when the social gatherings and functions keep on piling up like mad. When the appropriate dress options don't match up, well then, Houston we got a problem. The thing is, I'm super particular about the type of little black dress that I wear. The cut has to be just right, especially where it hugs me around the waist and shoulders. I need to be able to breath in the thing! And the neckline is a major part of it all. A little bit of shoulder blade is always a good thing in my opinion. But not too much. Leaving a little mystery is the most alluring I like to think. Sometimes today's modern day options just aren't good enough. Either too short. Too tight. Too frumpy. Thankfully, I struck gold with this vintage LBD from Doppelstandard. The Brooklyn-based online store features up-and-coming designers from all over the world, but also specializes in vintage from Japan and unique home goods. The scalloped edges around the neckline on this one makes it such a prize. And gives me more reasons to wear more neck scarves. You guys aren't surprised by this because you know me so well. hehe.
