{outfit post - the perfect lbd}

{diane von furstenberg zarita lace dress, anthropologie necklace worn as bracelet, nordstrom tights, dolce vita heels, mac 'ruby woo' lipstick}

i bought this lbd back in december knowing it would be perfect for holiday parties and winter events. surprisingly though, the holidays flew by without a chance to wear it. this weekend we had a wedding to attend (a rarity during a cold chicago winter) which was the perfect event to put it on display! the black lace adds a touch of elegance, while the sexy detailing in the back adds an extra oomph to an otherwise classic dress.

ps - boy was it cold taking these photos!
