One Dress, Four Looks

Almost every shop has their version of the little black dress but very few actually give you some visual ideas on how to wear it. The Lola dress is the perfect canvas for many great looks like these four suggestions from SwakDesigns:
How to Wear the Little Black Dress

What I like about the Lola Dress

I love skater style dresses with their a-line skirts, being a pear shape myself they always fit better than a sheath dress but they look lovely on many body types. And I like the way they move! This dress has a deep scoop neck exposing just enough skin without feeling like you are falling out, elbow length sleeves to provide enough arm coverage for warmth but still expose the skin of the forearms so you do not have to keep pushing up or pulling down sleeves. The high-low waistline if flattering and so receptive to belts. And finally, it is not as short as a true skater dress would be making it more functional for day to day life.

If you are oh-so-tired of little black dresses then this style also comes in the ever popular print of the season — leopard. Even though it is a print dress I think the four looks still apply.
