Outfit: Casual Black

Ever since I saw Kristine or Polly's outfit post on how to wear (mostly) all black, I've been wanting to wear more black outfits. The only problem is I don't have any black jeans. I've tried searching, but have never found the perfect black pair. I'll just be over here...still looking. 

To add a dash of color, I put on this lovely bow House of Garland headband in blue and yellow. I think this is the perfect headband to wear on a casual day; it adds the right amount of sparkle and glam and femininity.

One Dress, Two Ways || The Little Lace Dress + House of Garland Giveaway!

I bought this white lace dress on clearance months ago, but never wore it because a) I was afraid I would spill something on it, and b) I wasn't sure how to wear it. It feels so fancy, but I hardly ever go to parties. I wanted to figure out how to wear it for a regular day. 

For the first outfit, I went with a nighttime look or a party look. The first way I would think to wear a LLD (little lace dress). I wore my embellished sweater, pretty headband from House of Garland, and black heels. I'm going to gush about this lovely headband: I used to associate headbands with something little girls or Blair Waldorf wore, but all the headbands in House of Garland's Etsy shop are so elegant. They have the perfect amount of sparkle! Each headband is offered in a limited quantity, so you know you're getting something special!

Tights: old {similar} | Bracelet: Forever 21 {cute option, also cute} | Knot Ring: gift
Midi Ring: JC Penney | Heels: Payless

I wanted to wear a daytime outfit with this pretty dress to prove to myself that it could be done. And yes, it certainly can! Wearing a blue boyfriend cardigan, brown belt, knee-high socks, and brown boots makes the dress more casual. Though I haven't worn the outfit out yet, I would definitely wear it to work or to class, if I still had classes to attend. 

Another cute way to casual-ize (I just made up that word) this dress would be to wear a pullover sweater in a neutral or bright color with tights and booties. How would you wear a white lace dress?

Outfit: Urban + Sponsor: House of Garland

I wouldn't consider my style to be "urban," but sometimes it's nice to branch out and try new styles, even if I wouldn't wear it all the time. Incorporating a gray beanie, moto leggings, and studded olive booties made me feel very downtown New York City. Adding this gray sweater with the crochet bottom added some softness to my outfit. Do you branch out into other styles, or mostly stick to one style?
