Every so often, you stumble across that perfect how did I survive without you item.  This Mango shift dress is one of those items.  It is probably the most perfect everyday LBD and one of the most worn dresses in my closet.  Mango makes some amazing clothes and they have a pretty good price point too!  I usually buy their products from Asos, a favorite online retailer of mine.  This dress is perfect for just about every occasion – work, date night, bridal and baby showers, theatre events, happy hour, the list is endless!  I have owned this dress for over a year now and it still looks new!  Best part – I have never ironed it!  That is probably why I wear it so much too!  It has a slight seamed detailing at the waist to give you a little more shape than a normal shift dress.  The length is absolutely perfect for the office and you still get to show just a little leg.  It is also a good length to pair with booties!  These Nine West booties are also over a year old, but I scoured the internet and found them still available (and on sale) at Overstock.com!

An all black dress is the perfect time to let your accessories shine!  I wore this look to the Houston Ballet’s Nutcracker a few weeks ago and wanted to keep my accessories bright for the matinee show.  I love this hot pink clutch!  It is no longer available but I linked a gorgeous on sale DVF Clutch that I may be adding to my clutch collection soon!  I wear a lot of black so adding a bright clutch is a great way to add some color to my outfit.  I am also in love with my new Baublebar jewelry, a Cyber Monday find!  I am so excited they carry this necklace in silver.  My first color choice for jewelry is silver, and lately most trendy pieces only come in gold.   When I saw this in silver, I had to have it!  The necklace is a long strand that you can knot to create any length or look you want.  It has been fun experimenting with the different ways to wear it.  I also picked up this Crystal Mason Ring, which FYI is often sold out!  I was on the waitlist for this ring, and it was worth the wait!  The dark hematite color is really pretty and goes great with my other silver jewelry!  Jewelry is such a fun way to change up your looks and allow you to get multiple uses out of one outfit.
