The Little Black Dress

Flatiron, NY

This LBD from Nordstrom is the ultimate “desk to drinks” dress.  It’s form fitting, flattering, and long enough to wear to work.  I threw a vest over it (loving this one from Nordstrom) for a more casual look.  It’s so versatile and will be perfect for upcoming holiday cocktail parties.  I plan on pairing mine with these heels and this jacket.  Nordstrom has a ton of pretty cocktail dresses right now; I’m loving this one, this one (had to order it!), and this one.

    Stunning. Black & white and chic all over. I’m loving the new longer, slightly boxy, sleeveless jackets or shall I say, vest. You look great.
