Three ways to wear a little black dress

If you haven’t already, it’s time to make friends with the Little Black Dress. No longer reserved for special events, this versatile frock can be pulled out for pretty much any occasion.

From frolicking in the park to a romantic Valentine’s Day date; this dress takes the guessing out of getting dressed.

Park Play Date

Wear a dress to the park. Just try it. Once you discover you can run, lift, carry and dodge just as easily — if not more easily — in tights than your university sweatpants, you’ll never go back.
