Bebe Tailored Strapless Dress
$129.00
Available at: bebe.com
Bebe’s new arrivals are pretty impressive. There are tons of black items to choose from for the fall. There is one dress in particular that caught my eye. It’s a very sophisticated strapless black dress that is tailored to show off curves with a mysterious twist. The Bebe Tailored Light Strapless Dress has a V-cut out on the top front of the dress, and the light padded bodice helps create some extra top curves. To accentuate the waist in addition to the top padding, the dress has an empire waist, and a perfectly matching skinny fabric belt. Although, Bebe classifies this as a “party” dress, I beg to differ. I think it can be pearled up to give it an Audrey Hepburn classic look, or partied up by some bangles and high stilettos. Whatever you choose, I’m sure it will be hot!

Breezy or not, you always need a nice black skirt handy. Whether you wear it to the office, or to a luncheon you want to make sure you have a high quality black skirt around. Black skirts are an item of clothing you shouldn’t go cheap on. This Lauren by Ralph Lauren Kelby Straight Skirt is only $79.50! That’s a great deal for a sleek designer skirt. The skirt is simple with flair: it has an attached thick leather buckle detail at the waist of the skirt. The belt pulls the look together, especially when you wear it with a tucked in shirt.
