This week on FabulosiTEA, Caroline and I talk LBDs – that’s Little Black Dresses – from Coco Chanel to Pretty Little Liars. Check out the show notes at FabulosiTEA.com.

Additionally, I would like to share with you some pictures of my own little black dresses:

1. Kiki-inspired

I made the bow for a Ms Pac Man costume, but used a Kiki pattern so it could double up in use [See? Minimalist.]. By the way, that’s like, the one thing I’ve ever sewn. I am very proud of myself.

2. The BU Dress

This is my “minimalist work dress”, as I am a style ambassador, model, and writer for my friend Bianca Elgar’s brand Be Unlimited, Ltd. This is the “BU Dress”, which is designed to be convertible, with built-in loops at the neckline for customizing with different sleeve-scarves and styles. Very clever stuff!

Do you have a Little Black Dress? Describe, please.
