    Do you have a "little black dress"

    I do.  But I almost couldn't tell you the last time I wore it, but I will.

    Hi Morningdove. I have two black dresses. One for summer, one for winter. Neither is a cocktail dress, but more like what you would wear to a funeral.

    What is yours like?

    Not cocktail type either, but it's versatile that way.  I have worn it under a red duster which makes it look like velvet, but it's not.

    I use to keep a "little black dress" at all times when I had more functions to attend. But now I don't have one and just wear my church clothes to funerals etc... If we have a wedding in the family, I'd have to get a new dress.

    Yep, several in fact.  Wear them often.

     I have several black skirts.  I've always been more of a skirt girl.

    I have a little black & blue dress!  Wink

    Actually, it's the same sheath dress in black and also in navy blue.  I picked them both up in the same shopping trip. 

    I can wear the dress alone or with a jacket/sheer overblouse.  Doubt it'll ever go out of style....it's the type of dress Audrey Hepburn wore in "Breakfast At Tiffany's."  I have the pearls, but not the long cigarette holder she had.  Smile

    I also have quite a collection of basic black or black/white tweed "funeral" suits and skirts and pantsuits, and some "tuxedo" type black suits & pantsuits for nights out.  Since it's hard to find something I like that feels great and fits perfectly, I tend to buy classic styles that age gracefully...so I don't have to shop very often.  There's a method to my madness.  Also, DH tends to spring company events on me with short notice, so I have to have something ready to grab from the closet, all seasons.

    Which reminds me.....Tues. night is another dinner, so I'd better hit the closet today!!  Surprise

    Nope - I don't wear dresses or skirts.  But I have several dressy pant suits for state occasions.

    Ever since I was a little boy
    Dressing up has always been my greatest joy
    But when it's time to be discreet
    There's one thing you just can't beat
    And that's a strapless, backless
      classical little black dress!

    Well, first you go rip-rip-rip!
    Then you go snip-snip-snip!
    Then you whip in a zip-zip-zip!
    And split it up to hip-hip-hip!
    And as you strip-strip-strip,
    You shivver and quivver
    For that soft caress
    As you slip-slip-slip
    Into that little black dress!

    Ever since I was the eine kleine herrin
    It was the cordon blau
    For which I am most carin'.
    And the one taste treat so sweet
    That really can't be beat
    Is what we have here--
    How you are--
    Caviar!
    That little black mess!

    Well, first you go rip-rip-rip!

    That minimal

    Little black dress!

    Let's face it, Mac
    That basic black is coming back!
