This Month's Challenge: "The Little Black Dress"
A little black dress (LBD) is essential in every woman's wardrobe. It's always great for back-up if you run out of outfit ideas for a night out. Adding a pop of colour to your LBD will change up its look and make your dress a little less boring.
For this challenge, add a pop of colour (or two) to your little black dress to change up the look. You could add anything from an accessory to a blazer, or even nail polish!

Okay I admit it! I half-assed my own challenge. So sorry, guys..but I had exams to study for this month, along with me & my boyfriend's anniversary, work, and other errands to do. And summer school is next week.. ahhh... ><
So I was lazy with this, but I hope everyone else created great outfits with this challenge! I'd love some inspiration :D
Dress: Rodarte x Target | Ring: Urban Outfitters | Heels: H&M
Typical to add red to a black dress, but my creative juices just weren't flowing. :P Isn't this dress pretty though? :D
Dress: N/A | Tee: Forever 21 | Heels: H&M | Rings: eBay & ASOS | Bag: Coach

Love this dress! And, even though you call the red pumps "typical" they are hot! The casual outfit is super cute!

I tried on the same dress but it didn't fit. It looks good on you though! Red and black is a classic, you can't go wrong with it.
ReplyDeletep.s. you forgot to add me.
I love that you did two looks! Creative! Your first dress has such pretty details! And I absolutley love everything about the casual look! Great job!
ReplyDeleteAlso...I am participating in the challenge, but I entered my web link so late. I feel embarassed. :/
I love the way you styled your black dress!! ^o^ Red is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove the lace! I picked out a lace dress for this challenge too. Thanks for hosting,Jessy! This challenge turned out to be a lot harder than I thought it would be :)
ReplyDeleteI did red shoes too! It's just such a great paring, that you can't go wrong! ;)
ReplyDeleteHey hey look at that awesome chart!! Wait... How horrible of me... I admired your chart before your outfits! ;)
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with this, half-assery or not! I really like the bow and I looove the casual look! Good job Jessy, thank you for hosting!!
I really like your casual outfit. I did a casual outfit that I liked better than the formal look, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great Fashion Challenge Idea....so glad I was finally able to participate in one! :-)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love the tee + dress combo in the second outfit.
ReplyDeleteOh I love that dress!! It's sooo pretty! Thank you so much for hosting :)
ReplyDeleteI love the heels that you have on! I loved that you had two different LBDs, one formal and one more casual. I would have loved to wear your second outfit back when I was in undergrad! Thank you so much for hosting and what a great challenge! Can't wait to look through all of those entries, there are so many of them!
ReplyDeletei love your accessories!! in the first outfit, the turquoise ring is so pretty and those red heels go perfectly!

SPG PFC Entry
Love both looks!!! And that target dress is so gorgeous on you! The red shoes are definitely a nice touch too. :)
ReplyDeleteThe first dress is SO CUTE! I love that bow at the neckline. Is it part of Target's recent re-release? The red heels are the perfect accessory for this dress! Thank you for hosting, Jessy!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous dress and fits you perfectly! Thanks for hosting this! It's been fun seeing everyone else's looks!
ReplyDeletei actually like the casual look a lot!!! that would be so stylish to run errands in that outfit. thank you for hosting :)
ReplyDelete@Jen HaHA

ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting Jess!! Love the first dress! The turquoise ring and red heels compliment it well.
ReplyDeleteI thought this challenge was really challenging..and I felt like my creative juices weren't there either!

I love the lace dress. The ribbon is so darling! <3 Thank you so much for hosting. This was extremely fun. :)
ReplyDeletePrefer the first look - with the glasses, it gives off that nerdy glam vibe! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting, Jessy! This was so much fun! And I love that you posted a formal look as well as a casual look. It shows us that there is an LBD for every occasion! xoxo kiki
ReplyDeleteFirst- thx for hosting Jessy!! You did a fab job!!!! And I love both looks but the 2nd look is oh so adorable!!! It's so YOU and you look fantastic!!! :D
ReplyDeletewow that's the most unique black dress I've ever seen and I'm loving it. I also really, really like your second outfit. A dress like that, would be something I'd never pick up or give a second glance because I never knew how it can be worn so well >.< Now i want one.
ReplyDeleteOh my god, you just walked out of a Korean fashion ad, or something in YesStyle. I love it.
ReplyDeleteYou're so cute.
I don't own an LBD, so I didn't feel right trying to participate in this challenge... and then I saw that Khatu TOTALLY CHEATED... And I was like, F, I should have done that.
Oh well, next month!
xx{ish.},
Mae Lu @ thereafterish.!
Really love the first dress! Something I'd like to have (PS do tell me if you want to sell it!)
ReplyDelete@Cee: Target did not re-release this dress from the Rodarte line.
ReplyDeleteI own this Rodarte dress too Jessy. I love it!!! I think it's such good quality. and I got it on super sale!!!! like $10 or smthg. I think it looks so good on you! Doesn't look loose at all.
I'm in love with that Rodarte dress! Apparently Target will be coming over to Canada sometime in the future. Which is exciting cause they always awesome collaborations!
ReplyDeleteYour Target LBD dress is so pretty! I wish I knew about it when it was being sold at Target. Thanks for hosting this PFC! It is my favorite one so far :) Also makes me want to find red shoes now too:)
ReplyDelete@Petite in the City
ReplyDeleteThank you for participating, Lor! :D
@Irene @CouturePetite

@Mae Lu
LOL Mae! Quit making me blush :P Those Korean models are TOO pretty. Thank you though! And did Khatu cheat? LOL I haven't had the chance to look but I'll be going through the entries after I reply people!
@Slayerbabe
I'll keep you in mind ; ) (but just realized I have no way of contacting you! Your profile is unavailable!
@AubreyOhDang!
omg really? I want to see this on you! The material is super thick and I can't believe you got it for so cheap! I think I'm so used to wearing fitted clothing that this dress just FEELS loose on me.
@Dianne
Yes I heard! I can't wait to see what they have in store. Their collabs are so fun.
@Olyvia
Thanks Olyvia! : )
thank YOU for hosting! :)
ReplyDeletealso, thank you for stopping by my blog. i love the shoes too, but i've already fallen once while wearing them. i don't usually wear heels and the 4 inches are a bit much for me. :p

Jessy, I'm really loving your second casual outfit. I think the pin/red stripes on the T and the red shoes really work well together. I'm usually not a fan of the Coach C all over the place bags, but I like how this bag works with your outfit. A casual, nice kind of way. :) Thanks for hosting this challenge. Good luck on your studies!
ReplyDeletei love your LBD!! i'm still on the lookout for the perfect black dress :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting this, Jessy! I really like that first dress. I must have missed it as part of Rodarte for Target and was probably distracted by their much less wearable, weird creations. This dress is very elegant looking (and seems to be quite fitted) on you, unlike the stuff I saw in store last week that they brought back from the initial Rodarte for Target collection. The red pumps and turquoise make it extra pretty! Lots of red pumps in this challenge it seems : )
ReplyDelete@Vicky
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicky! I like how the bag adds to the "casual-ness" of the look too : )
@PetiteAsianGirl
It feels a bit loose, but not throughout. : )
