Black is a staple, for all of us, but how do you do it? All black, black and white, throw in a bit of colour, accessorise with different patterns?
I like to have enough place pieces in my wardrobe that I can do all of the above. The thing is, you don't want to have the same old black top or dress that just gets so overused that your friends no longer want to be seen next to you ( trust me it happens, the world is a vain place! ) you need a few options and a range of different ways to wear them - there is always room for more black!
I fell in love with this MLM dress - Which I personally prefer to wear as a top.
I am not a huge fan of anything too short where I feel uncomfortable and cant move ( once again insert cartwheel here) so with this option, I have chosen to add some black loose shorts underneath and create a different look. It takes it from being too dressy, to a more casual shirt and I think it look really classic and is actually the perfect travelling dress ( top )
I've teamed it with a pop of colour on my feet - some ZU Shoes
and a classic

How would YOU wear it?
If you travel a lot, tops and dresses like this are the perfect choice, and can be rolled and scrunched up in your bag and will be ready to wear day / night/ and on the plane.
It's comfortable, but looks chic enough to be able to be worn to the office, or to a meeting, so it's all about how you accessorise something like this, as to how you will look and feel in it.
Create a fun summer look with a wide brimmed hat, some colourful jewellery and cute shoes, or if you want to stay in the 'all black' mode, throw on some skinny black jeans, some black kitten heels and a red lip and your good to go for that friday night date - or night out with the ladies.
However YOU do black it's up to you- that's the best part- but this basic 'shirt' / 'dress' - depending on how tall you are is the perfect base to style the rest of your look from.
You already have plenty of ways to wear it so your friends won't get to sick of seeing you in it too quickly, win !
