Who Will Win “The LBD Experiment™ Tours America” Reader Prize Package???
Posted on | September 3, 2010
Throughout the month of August as The Little Black Dress Experiment™ Tours America made stops around the country we encouraged readers to get involved and asked them “How Would You Style Your Little Black Dress?” Admittedly, entering the contest was a bit more work than just submitting your email. We asked readers to style their LBD, take a picture with their Little Black Dress Experiment™ Tours America sign in front of a local landmark and submit their style pic online. To reward one loyal fan, the tour sponsors contributed more than $1,000 in goodies to the reader prize package, including… Read more

PHOTO LOCATION: Los Angeles, California
My name is Kelsi Smith and I am the Editor and Founder of Dedicated Follower of Fashion and I’m here in sunny and fabulous Downtown Los Angeles. Peeking out of my background there is the Walt Disney Concert Hall, a beautiful landmark in this fabulous city designed by world renowned architect Frank Gehry. Now it may seem that I’m just standing in an ordinary parking lot – for the view perhaps? Nope, this ordinary little parking lot will be, in 6 months from now, a Downtown Los Angeles landmark in itself as the new home of Los Angeles Fashion Week thanks to Fashion Los Angeles (http://fashionlosangeles.org) and architect Marmol Radziner. Exciting stuff happening in my amazing city! Read more

ChicTexan.com does the Little Black Dress Experiement
I chose to pair my classic black Ann Taylor sheath ($128) with some bold statement pieces that express my true personality and style. The cotton shirt-dress is versatile, comfortable and flattering – making this piece the ultimate closet staple. Yet those three factors proved as an unexpected challenge when it came down to styling my individual look for Society Stylist’s Little Black Dress Experiment, because the directions this dress could be taken are limitless! Paired with black pumps the look is “Career Chic,” worn with a cardigan, layered with polos and paired with ballet flats or loafers it’s “Country Club Chic,” but what I was looking for was a glamed-out, on-trend, head turning, but not gaudy, fabulous “Texas Chic”!

Heralded by Vogue as “a sort of uniform for all women of taste,” the little black dress was first introduced in the early 1920s my Coco Chanel. It’s popularity grew with designers such as Dior, Givenchy and Bill Blass altering it’s length, bodice and trimmings to meet the trends of their time. The little black dress is the one staple that every woman must have in their wardrobe. As Editor-in-Chief of Chic Galleria magazine (www.chicgalleria.com), being part of The Little Black Dress Experiment Tour placed me in front of the third largest free-standing statue in the United States, the Golden Driller in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
