I did a “conference to cocktails” post over at Tish’s last week, and quite a few people asked me to replicate the project with a neutral-colored dress.
A very near version of this LBD is in my closet already, so this was a lot of fun to put together!
Any other requests? Pants? A suit? Let me know…

These are great! I love what you do and look forward to getting ideas from you. Great job.
Lovely options…
It's such fun to see your creative genius at work.
Fabulous title and love the options you came up with!
Is there an email address where you can be contacted with suggestions for future blog entries?
Sure! I can be reached at theviviennefiles@gmail.com
I look forward to hearing from you!
your posts have been great! somehow i have found that it's much harder than it might seem to find a great blazer to go with an lbd or lots of other things. in fact, i have not managed to find one. i still have some lovely blazers from the '90's but the shoulders are way too big! any recommendations re where to find a nice classic (black) blazer? not "shrunken", not peplum, not with really narrow sleeves, no giant gold buttons….do you see my dilemma??
yours,
esme noir
Oh, I like the red combo!
I especially like the way your wardrobe suggestion strategies always include at least a couple with what look like comfortable shoes. Coordinating outfits for dress occasions and for travel with shoes that I think I can actually stand for hours in or walk blocks in is always for me the hardest part. I thought the funky red Converse sneakers in your recent airport post were genuius.
…That's genius, or more properly, ingenious. 🙂
Gorgeous options on making the LBD elegant for evening!
