PHOTO LOCATION: Tulsa, Oklahoma

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.

I’m Kadi Prescott, creator of Girly Gazette and proud California girl! By day, I’m a work at home mother of seven who has to dress with a focus on functionality and comfort. On the flip side, I’m a media maven and creator of social networking events. This alter ego feeds my need to socialize and get glam! My mission in life, outside of hosting my own television show, is to teach the world that motherhood should not kill our inner fashionistas! (more…)

Day 22: Little Black Dress Experiment™ Tours to Dallas, Texas

Chevis English – Face Doctorette: Confessions of a Plastic Surgeon’s Daughter
PHOTO LOCATION: Dallas, Texas – Pioneer Plaza

Hey Ya’ll – I’m Chevis English from Face Doctorette, which is a blog about beauty, style and healthy living. I have always been obsessed with clothes and putting different pieces together that most people wouldn’t combine so I couldn’t wait to participate in this experiment. The inspiration for my look came from the fabulous “Lexine” boot from Vince Camuto. I got these boots a couple of weeks ago and couldn’t wait to wear them. I paired my Little Black Dress from Ann Taylor with a chambray shirt from Topshop. I simply tied it up, threw on my boots and slathered on some shiny read lipstick et voilà. You can’t get more southern than that! (more…)
