Whenever I hear “little black dress” I think of a cocktail party, I don’t know why. It just sounds like something you’d wear to an important event-a cocktail party, a wedding, a job interview. But I realized recently how un-true that is. Especially when you consider the little black sundress. This outfit came as a result of “laundry day”, which basically means I hadn’t done the laundry so my usual go-tos were not available. I threw this on for a Sunday dinner out with the kids (hence the large “mom-tote“) and I felt casually put together. It’s nice to get out of the jeans once in a while and remember a time before constantly bending over to pick up the kids and wear a dress! Karl Lagerfeld said one is never over-dressed or underdressed with a little black dress, and I now agree. Let’s face it the man knows how to wear black.
