Searching for That Perfect LBD

    Continuing from my last post about Little Black Dresses (henceforth referred to as LBDs)  I wanted to take just a moment to highlight some of my favorite LBDs on the market right now.  I truly believe they are an essential to every woman's wardrobe, whether it's a cocktail party, graduation, or even a funeral (yes, I know it's a little morbid to plan for that sort of thing, but let's face it, they're a part of life)  a little black dress is something that's perfect for all occasions.
    It's important to find one that speaks to your style and flatters your figure.  And, just because it's black doesn't mean it has to be boring.  Just as with the Lavish Alice dress that caught my eye, the right LBD has something special about it.  So, in this post I'll feature a variety of lengths and fits, but all with a little oomph.

First up is this adorable little bow belted dress from ModCloth with side cut outs.
Classic Twist Dress in sizes S M L for $59.99
This dress from Forever21 has some serious style with mesh panels, a full length skirt and halter neck.   Mesh Panel Maxi dress in sizes S M L for $22.90
I am crazy about this dress from Unique-Vintage.  The sweetheart neckline and full skirt make it a timeless look.  Stop Staring! Mad Style Swing Dress in sizes S M L XL for $172.00
This dress by Catherine's has all my favorites for a romantic classic dress: Lace, three quarter sleeves, and a knee length hemline.  Scalloped Boudoir Dress in sizes 0X - 4X for $158.00


This Asos dress is classy, understated with a midi waist and detail pleating at the bust.  But most importantly it is oh, so figure flattering.  Asos Midi Dress in US sizes 0-14 for $72.00
And just in case this Lavish Alice dress has captured your heart, there are a few shops on Ebay that still carry it for $20-$50 (not including shipping)
