Update Your LBD With These 5 Easy Tricks

A little black dress is traditional, but it doesn’t have to be ordinary. Try incorporating one of these 5 easy style tricks the next time you break out your go-to LBD.

1. An Embellished Collar

Even if your go-to LBD doesn’t have a collar, you can easily create a detachable one. Try this ready-made DKNY Embellished Silk-Blend Twill Collar ($95) or get crafty and pile on the sequins and rhinestones yourself for a glam effect.

2. Statement Necklace

In a hurry but still want to jazz your traditional black dress up a bit? Simply add a statement necklace. A LBD is slimming enough, but an eye-catching necklace concentrates the focus on your face rather than your trouble spots. Take a cue from Georgia May Jagger, who doubled up on two Thomas Sabo necklaces at the jewelry line’s collection launch in London.

3. Colorful or Printed Coat

Even Arizona nights get cold. Instead of wearing your usual dark monochromatic outerwear, opt for an eye-popping print or bright contrasting color. Here, Alicia Vikander wears an emerald Minimarket Starship Coat ($515).

4. Layered Button Down
