Heather Thomson on How to Wear a LBD
When I think of the classic LBD, I think of all the ways I like to wear it. In fact, one of my latest designs and newest wardrobe “must haves” is from my fall collection, the Ella Rae dress.
It’s black, it’s slimming, it’s super comfortable, it’s easy to wear, and it’s one of those pieces you just can’t live without! If you want to feel Yummie, slim your look and have fun, below are several ways this dress work for all of your holiday and day-to-night occasions.
I have literally worn this dress for all scenarios I describe below, and can personally guarantee that all of my tips for styling the Ella Rae will also work with every little black dress hanging in your closet!
Rock it for Work
- A classic blazer, trend-right fur vest, or sleeveless sweater makes for a warm, stylish and chic look
- Add some luxe with lots of long chains or chunky bangles
- Dress it up with a pair of black pumps – there is nothing more slimming than black, opaque tights and a beautiful pair of black pumps
After Work Soiree
- Take off the jacket or sweater and strut the dress all by itself, with the perfect clutch you grabbed on your way out the door
- Go from black tights to fishnet or black lace for an almost entirely new look
- Add a scarf around your neck with some darker lipstick and you are ready for cocktail hour
Weekend Errands/ Brunch with Friends
- Add a yummie cardigan sweater and some flat, over-the-knee biker boots for a casual, played down chic
- Throw on some footless tights and clean, simple flats with a cross-body bag for a more bohemian look
Date night
- High platform black heels and a cropped leather jacket to show off you waistline and channel your inner diva!
- For cocktail attire, add dangling earrings and fishnets, with an open toe and you will be divine
- Keep your eye make up low-key, and add a vivid red lip
As you can see, the options for styling a LBD are virtually limitless! Try out one or all, or even better, share your favorite ideas in the comments.
Stay yummie!

 Good fitting basics are essential to every wardrobe, and the classic white tee is the perfect foundation for styling both classic fashion and trend-right looks.
Start out by trying different sleeve lengths and different neck lines to shake up your white T-shirt routine. Then experiment with these fashion suggestions, shaping them to fit your own individual style — and remember to Show It Off!
Simple Basic to Fashion Statement!
Just moving away from same ‘ole style will make this everyday essential fresh and new. Go for something new, and remember, fashion is about fun!
Accessorize!
- A scarf is an easy way to add a touch of chic to every outfit
- Grab some chunky jewelry! Bib necklaces, big rings, cuffs and stacks of bangles dress it up
Retro right!
- Pair with dark skinny jeans, a vest and clean Converse and a hat
- Cuff a pair of washed out boyfriend jeans and throw on an oversize blazer — finish off with flats for day, booties for night
Short and Sassy!
- Tuck into a short, structured skirt, show off those legs, and finish off the look with a pair of peep toe ankle boots for on-trend WOW
Long and Lean!
- Layer over Yummie Shaping Leggings in black, top off with a leather motocross jacket and sky-high heels
- Tuck into sleek, black, high-waisted pants with tons of long necklaces, or wrist bangles, plus a plain satin clutch for an night out
Change it up!
- If you always wear ballet flats with skinny jeans, try switching to a riding boot, or high-waisted wide leg jean and wedge heels
More Yummie Ideas!
I always say that Yummie Tummie is for every woman. To see how versatile the classic white t-shirt can be, we gave eight fabulous fashion bloggers their choice of a white Yummie Tummie t-shirt styles:
Short-sleeve Crew Neck T
3/4 sleeve Crew Neck T
Long sleeve crew or V-neck T
 Then we asked them to share their ideas for making style statements with this wardrobe must have. Check out all of their fun ideas for fashion inspiration:
Thanks to these lovely ladies for their inspiration. Got a great idea for styling? Share it in the comments!
