The Little Red Dress | tips

StartFragment

Happy Wednesday everyone!

We always hear about the little black dress (LBD) and the little white dress (LWD), but not very often do we hear about that little red dress. The LBD & LWD are definitely the #musthaves in our closet, however the little red dress do come in handy from time to time. The little red dress is an eye catching piece. It is bold, it immediately makes you feel more confident while giving you that sexy look. So, here are my tips on wearing a little red dress. (Please note: I'm not a professional stylist, this is just purely my opinion on it)

Do not over accessorize

One rule of thumb for when I wear a red dress is to not over-accessorize. Red itself already provides a powerful statement to your outfit. By accessorizing the outfit with other loud prints (i.e. on a scarf) or layering too many necklaces will clutter the look and may become a little too overwhelming. I kept my accessories at a minimal with a delicate double triangle necklace, a small watch and a simple ring.

Pair it with neutrals

Since red provides such a strong statement to an outfit, it is best to pair it with neutrals (black, white, or nude). I was feeling for a brighter look today, so I decided to pair the dress with my white blazer. To tone all the brightness down a little bit, I have finished the look with a pair of nude heels.
