LBD: Spring Edition

I know what you all are thinking, “How can I get the most mileage out of my little black dress this season.” And I’m here to deliver.

Or maybe you’re thinking, “Girlfriend, aren’t you cold?!” To which I say, it was an unseasonably warm 80 degrees here yesterday and I would even go so far to say that it got a little steamy!

The only other thing I can think of that might be popping into your head at this exact moment is, “How did your legs get so tan?” Insert the sunkissed tights from Hanes Hosiery’s Spring Line. They add an extra layer (when the weather is acting more like spring and less like summer), a touch of color and that control top? Let’s just say it gets the job done.

I opted for the tights in medium bronze, but given the current state of my legs I think I could have gone a shade lighter (read: my legs haven’t seen the light of day in a hot minute).

My sister passed on this little black dress to me last year and it pairs perfectly with my Coach crossbody bag. To top it all off, I gave my fringe booties one last spin around the block before the open-toe-only policy goes into effect. I’m trying to make it a thing, if you were wondering.

On a completely unrelated note, this week has been really, really good and I’m feeling hopeful that the rest of April is going to follow suit!
