If you had to choose one garment from your closet to wear to an event, without knowing what exactly the occasion consisted of, what would you choose? The most basic, must-have item in every woman's wardrobe is the eminent 'little black dress.' Though this popular staple is one of the most simple garments that a fashionista could own, never underestimate its versatility. Hot black dresses for 2012 can be reinvented numerous times to create countless different looks, simply by accessorizing them.
Whether the occasion is a casual lunch or a fancy gala event, a hot black dress styled with the right accessories will put you at the top of the best-dressed list.
On Casual Days
- The Sweater Dress
During chilly days, wear a slouchy black sweater dress over decorative black or gray tights and ankle boots. This carefree look is comfortable, easy to wear, and very fashion forward.
- The Shirt Dress
For a professional look, pair a collar shirt dress with an embellished belt and closed-toe pumps. Fold the sleeves over for a three-quarter sleeve length and stack on a few bangles or bracelets for a complete professional diva outfit.
- Basic Tank or Tee Dress
On a lazy day, choose a simple black T-shirt dress and use accessories to turn the basic staple garment into a completed look. For a Rodeo Drive celebrity-inspired outfit, throw on a vivid colored scarf and pair with some slouchy boots. Stack on a couple of matching bracelets and you are ready for Hollywood!
Semi-Formal Cocktail Events
- The Satin Strapless Mini Dress
A classic style that combines sexiness with sophistication is the satin strapless mini dress. Form-fitted and curve-hugging, this style is a timeless staple in every bombshell beauty's closet. Wear this with gorgeous chandelier earrings and a simple necklace for a refined look. If you are feeling a little riskier, pair with red pumps and a matching clutch for a pop of color and an eye-catching outfit.
- 1980's Rocker-Chic Dress
For a semi-formal look that's a little wilder, go for the 80's look. A bubble hem, shiny fabric, and bold accessories will give you just the right amount of edge; statement chain necklace pieces are the perfect accent to this ensemble. If you are feeling extra risky, try on a studded cuff for the ultimate rocker-chic style.
Formals and Galas
- The Mermaid Dress
Mermaid-style dresses look stunning regardless of the color - but they look absolutely stunning in black. Paired with sexy, strappy stilettos and diamond jewelry, this look is meant to be featured on the catwalk.
- The Plunge V-neck Dress
For the sexiest look of the year, strut the plunge v-neck dress, if you dare. This design looks best in black, balancing an ultra sexy look with the highest level of elegance. A fancy updo and beautiful diamond earrings will make you look like you just walked across the red carpet for the biggest fashion gala event of the year.
