Basic Black Dress
Dresses are the easiest way to get stuck in a fashion rut, but don’t let yourself settle into the same-old look. Take some clues from diverse styles. If you’re into cultural, tribal fashion then don a trendy oversized cardigan with tribal prints. For a darker, more goth look, add lots of black accessories including a black jacket and Dr. Martin style boots. To create a “pretty meets punk” look, incorporate a beanie and some velvet heels.
