Somehow, with my admittedly sizeable closet, I managed to not own a little black dress. Karina Dresses has remedied that oversight by sending me this little black dress:

| Yes, it was cold. See what I do for you, Dearest Readers? |
And I love it. It looks simple enough, but is surprisingly versatile. Today I’m wearing a winterized work version of the dress with a wool Lauren Ralph Lauren jacket (thrifted), olive tights, riding boots (Born Crown “Sosie” via Nordstrom) and a bird-print scarf (thrifted):
But I could easily dress it up with a statement necklace, or a brooch or three at the waist or shoulder, or a colorful shoe or some major earrings. And, in the summer, it’ll work wonderfully with a metallic sandal and an arm full of bangles.
I think it’s the cut that makes this dress so versatile. It has a flattering v-neck, waist-enhancing waistband and a thigh-approved full skirt. I also like that it’s sleeveless, but still offers enough coverage so my bra straps aren’t tempted to run amok. And I love the length – its one that would work for any age, any body and any height.
Little black dresses aren’t all that Karina Dresses makes though. They offer this particular dress (the Marissa) in several prints and colors and even offer it with sleeves. They also offer several other dress styles in a variety of prints and colors. And, because the dresses are made from limited edition fabrics, the prints change regularly so their customers can always find new options in their favorite style. I love that.
There is a lot to love about Karina Dresses though. I love that they’re a small, American company based in Brooklyn and that they produce all of their dresses on site. I love that their dresses are targeted towards women of all ages, all ethnicities, all aesthetics and all body types (they carry up to size 20 in some styles). And I love their fabulous fabric – it’s a microfiber blend with 4-way stretch that is machine-washable and never needs ironing; which, as a lazy gal, I truly appreciate.
And I think you’ll appreciate Karina Dresses as well. Which is why I’ve teamed up with them to offer one reader a free dress and the rest of my beloved readers $30.00 off the purchase of a Karina Dresses dress.
