Whether it's for a night out with clients, after work get together or a date with someone special - you need that fabled little black dress in your closet for these occasions. There will be times when you need something dressy that can go either formal or fun depending on the accessories you choose and that's where your little black dress will go for miles.

When you choose your little black dress, skip the cotton. Cotton wrinkles, you want something that will look fresh and new all night long. Go for knit fabrics as they gently hug your curves where it looks good and will fall straight over the areas you really don't want to call attention to.

Accessories are a must with a little black dress. Sweep your hair up if its long and comb back with gels with its short for a more classic and elegant look. Fluff and curls are the way to go if you're attending a more casual 'do.

A simple, long strand of pearls will look outstanding with your little black dress for a formal occasion. Your favorite fine jewelry, a diamond drop or a gold or white gold chain will all lend an air of elegance. If you are wanting a more casual look for your outfit, go bright, big and chunky with your jewelry. A large, brightly colored necklace with earrings to match will look fun as anything for a night out.

Black shoes aren't the only color you can wear with your little black dress. Boots as well as colored shoes can meld in nicely. Add a bright red belt and bright red shoes and a handbag to match for a look with pure European flair. A pretty pair of strappy black sandles will look fabulous in the summer too.
