The Little Black Dress


When Net-A-Porter's fashion writer extraordinaire Natalie Rigg asked me whether I was a little black dress kind of girl during my interview for the "Shoe Guide",  I responded not really. But then I stumbled across this pic on Sandra Semburg's gorgeous blog A Love is Blind. Natalie, I change my answer: I totally am, especially if it looks like this!

LBD by Prada.

Please check out Sandra's blog. Her photography is very beautiful. I love this pic so much that I even used it as my profile image for Alessandra Facchinetti's Board of U. More on Uniqueness coming soon.

Tamu, you look fabulous! Every girl should own a great LBD!

Tamu McPherson said...

Thanks Erica and Natasha! It's a really fun dress. I love it because of it's subtle sexiness. It has a conservative silhouette, really simple in the front, with the back exposed. Great LBD. It's one of those pieces that I know I'll wear very far down the line.

You could wear this dress forever, it would never go out of style. But then again, I think that we're living the best times in terms of fashion: you can wear basically anything that if it's a specific or unique enough look, it's always in fashion because retro or vintage are very big nowadays.

What a wonderful picture of you in a wonderful dress. I'm a huge fan of Sandra's photography (and of her personally) and she's captured you beautifully here. Hope lots of people go check out her work!

I'm not a LBD kind of girl either, but I could wear that dress everyday! I love the open back. This picture is so gorgeous!

We’ve got the same philosophy before Tamu! But everything changed when I saw black people wearing beautiful black dresses on fashion shows.

You're so beautiful, without trying too hard and that's a big thing!
I've discovered your fabulous style while Paris fashion week, I should have said hi, next time I will:)
Coming back to your outfit...I think it is quite difficult to find the perfect LBD, I honestly didn't find mine yet, still searching and I have the feeling that one day I will find one, maybe in my favorite vintage store:)

That LBD is a beauty and a HALF! I used to think the same about LBD's till I came across this sweet little thing in Zara which I cannot wait to wear:-)
