I'm going w/ my bf to a party being hosted by his work. I am going for a little black dress (my excuse to buy a new one). So which of these do you like? (pleasae ignore the price, that's not my main issue). I'm 25, 5'5", thin, black hair blue eyes. Also what accessories? Links would be great! Thanks in advance, <3 Xi

Oh the first one definitely! Since you are thin and on the shorter side (no offense I'm that exact height too) it will hug your curves nicely and isn't so long that it stumps you or so short it's vulgar. Paired with a great pair of high black heels, and silver and pearl accessories.

Pull your hair back in a low chignon, leaving a few tendrils left out and curled. For make up, a great smokey eye, that plays up your eye color, a soft cheek and a neutral glossy lip. Hope this helps, have fun!

Personally from a man's point of view at least mine, I would go with dress number one and while your at it pick out a nice pair of black pumps to complete the look maybe add a simple pearl necklace

Cute dresses, but out of all 3 of them.....the 1st one is my favorite.
I searched the site more.....and I found these two:

It might not be your style, but it's adoriable! It seems that it might fit your body, but I might be wrong! Hope this helps!
Ps: If you'r going with the 1st one, I would get pearls because you would need a round necklace (which fit's best to the style of dress). Dimonds would be WAY to flashy. Just keep it simple!

The first one

I think they're all a bit boring, and somewhat dated, especially for a 25 year old. 1 &3 look more like youre going to a mafia function as a mistress. Not fashionable.
If you said you were 35, Id maybe pick #2 for you. There are so many better ones on there if you go under "little black dress"

The first one is perfect. The other two are a bit dated. The dress speaks for itself, so for accessories I'd go with simple - it will be classy and it is afterall, a work function.
Its summer, so go for some great strappy shoes and a good pedicure. You'll look fabulous.

If you will be socializing with people with whom your boyfriend works I'd go with the third one which is a little conservative but not frumpy like the second one. The neckline is a bit low, but not as revealing as the sleeveless number. A simple string of pearls would go nicely, and a pair of strappy black shoes. Hope you have fun!

#1 with silver (short) simple necklace and diamond stud earrings.
Don't care for the other 2 based on the fact you're 5'5 and thin. Have fun!

I like the first one.
Maybe you could wear pearls, gold or silver bracelets, simple earrings, and maybe a sequined bag! Wear some accessories that give some color or brightness because they make a great contrast to that black dress. =)

personally i love the third one but the first one is nice too. the third one is great because its already classy enough that you DO NOT need lots of jewelry. It has a lower neckline so no need for a necklace and all you need is a pair of silver dangle earings to accent the black. and maybe a nice clutch. good luck!
