LWD

Although technically its only spring, it feels as though summer is truly among us (how long it will last is quite another story). There's nothing I love more in these long summer days, and warm summer nights than a lovely, pretty LWD (that's little white dress, in case you weren't aware). The LWD comes in all shapes and sizes and because its such a simple, but very chic, concept, there's plenty of room for creativity. 

Now, if you're one of those lucky people who is blessed with beautifully sun-kissed skin then you probably don't need to worry too much about making this look more interesting as you have the perfect backdrop to the softness of the white. If, on the other hand, you're anything like me and you've never actually had a tan in you're life because you really are that pale that your skin just refuses to colour in even the slightest amount and so your only hope is to try and get SO many freckles that they can pass for a tan, then there a lots of options. Yes that's right, ladies, I'm talking about accessories. Bracelets, earrings, necklaces, belts, headbands; anything goes because of the beautifully simple nature of the dress. Alternatively, you can find a LWD that has some interesting details such as lace, applique, beading or embroidery and this will bring it to life in a fabulous way. Although it's always nice to bring some colour or sparkle or both into your outfit. Either way, get out there and get one of these (see my favourites below), you simply cannot start your summer wardrobe without one.
