One of my favourite movies of all time is Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The iconic scene of the very beautiful Audrey Hepburn, stood outside that famous store, dreaming of owning a diamond or two in her little black dress looking the epitome of class and sophistication is magical.
The little black dress has become synonymous with that scene and now a wardrobe staple for many women around the world. I’ve put together a collection of items from the high street to create one of my favourite ways to wear a little black dress, not forgetting those essential string of pearls.
1. Black crepe mini dress, New Look.
2. Royal pearl statement necklace, Accessorize.
3. Textured weave jacket, H&M.
4. Rouge Allure lipstick, Chanel.
5. Black patent stiletto, Outerinner.
6. Natural contrast piped clutch bag, Debenhams.
I think the little black dress has become such a favourite because it can be worn with literally anything. Dressed for work with a jacket and ballet pumps, then re-styled with some heels and pearls for the evening. It can take you from day to night with so much ease.

Do you own a little black dress? What is your favourite way to wear it?
I have a couple of LBDs and they are so useful! I have ones I can wear for work but also dress up and others strictly for special occasions. This collection is so elegant Jemma!
They are so versatile, definitely a fab wardrobe staple!
I don’t have a black dress- I tend to buy patterned ones or ones with more colour. I do have some that are black with things on them, but I tend to go for navy rather than black.
Navy is a lovely alternative to black as it can look quite harsh sometimes. 🙂
I love the film Breakfast At Tiffanys too! I think that will always be an all time favourite. Loving that little LBD!
It such a classic isn’t it, love it!
