They say every girl should own an LBD, also known as a little black dress, to have for any occasion. But these days, an LBD can get pretty dull, especially when you know that every girl has one in her closet. As the seasons change, so should your wardrobe. It’s time to liven up your style choices by adding some colored print, which is never considered a bad idea. Bold and colorful prints can be spotted just about everywhere—from leggings to shirts and dresses. While we can all agree that the typical LBD is a classic, adding a bold printed dress is becoming just as much of a necessity. The best part is that printed dresses are like shapeshifters—they can easily transform from a casual daytime dress to an outfit that can be worn for a night out on the town.
Whether it’s floral, tribal, geometric or polka-dots, these printed dresses are coming in hot and they have been working the trend for all it’s worth. Much like this Fashionista, you can pair these printed dresses with strappy sandals and some understated accessories for a simple summer look. So avoid the hassle of finding a new outfit for your night outing and pick something ahead of time that will easily make the day to night transition for you.
One Simple Change: Switch out the flats for a pair of your favorite wedges and throw on a cute leather or jean jacket for the perfect outfit for a special celebration. You can even switch out the modest accessories for something a bit more bold, like a chunky necklace. Believe it or not, a printed dress can be just as easy to dress up (or down) as an LBD!
