Little black dresses

This fall, I went to the ballet with my friend Jason and his girlfriend, who was wearing a little black dress with a sleek ponytail and red lipstick. She looked so incredibly chic that ever since then I've been on the hunt for the perfect little black dress. Here are the six pretty ones...
1. Bardot dress.
2. Lace dress.
3. Bow dress.
4. Beaded dress.
5. Pleated dress. (The leopard heels are a fantastic touch.)
6. Lace dress.

Which would you choose? I think I'd go for #1 or #5...

P.S. Hot pink would be fun, too:)

  2. The beaded dress is by far my favorite and second fav would definitely be the pleated (#5).

  5. Joanna! I just bought this one from ASOS and am obsessed. Super pregnant ladies need little black dresses too:) http://www.asos.com/au/ASOS-Maternity/ASOS-Maternity-Katie-Lace-Dress/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1768146&cid=5813&sh=0&pge=3&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Black

  6. OH ABSOLUTELY 1 or 5. SO sexy is No.1 and No. 5 is very chic.

  7. I like 4 because it manages to be both on-trend and timelessly chic.

  10. Number 2 is calling my name, but I probably wouldn't consider it a LBD.

  12. I love the Bardot dress and the bow dress! But the beaded dress looks so chic with opaque black tights. You can never go wrong with a black dress!

  13. I adore #6 because it's a little funky....but totally out of my price range. My favorite black dress is a lace one I scored at a garage sale last summer. Win.

  14. I love the 2nd one! So elegant and chic!

  15. I think #5 wins for me.
    But where is the very first one (that's larger) from?

  19. 5 and 6 are definitely the ones closest to my style preferences. They're all cute and I'd imagine they would all look adorable at a Holiday party (or night at the ballet).

    LBDs are so hard sometimes, but such a necessity!

  20. That top image is divine.

    I'll take the legs with the dress, please!

  38. Any other alternative is the smoking. The best is an YSL one, but you can find a cheaper version in JCrew or Zara

  46. I like number 4 and number 5... Number 4 because it is casual enough that it could be worn everyday or dressed up to wear to a party. Number 5 the lace is just gorgeous!

  59. I searched and searched for years until finally, my friend got married and asked me to be a bridesmaid. She wanted me to wear a little black dress, so I had to get one.
    I ended up sewing mine. I just couldn't find one I loved within my budget. But I got everything I wanted! My friend's mom had hers made by a seamstress and she got everything she wanted, too. It was a great solution!

  65. I love that lace dress!

    I found my absolute favorite little black dress when I was 16. I bought it for $25 at TJ Maxx and wore it to my Junior Prom. It was far from your typical prom dress and I felt so grown up and mature. I paired it with red heels and pearls and got so many compliments.
    It is still my go-to when I need to dress up, and I am dreading the day it no longer fits.
