THE NEW LITTLE BLACK DRESS?

It is still a mystery as to who started this fashion phenomenon of the little black dress, even though rumor has it that Coco Chanel is the culprit. The fashion world was properly introduced to "THE LITTLE BLACK DRESS" by actress Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffanys in 1961 and since then 'The Little Black dress' has swamped the world.

In our generation, what simple style can you say have been discovered and might be a must have for every female? The fitting white T-shirt comes to mind for me. Valerie Steele the director of The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City state said that the little black dress is and I quote "A little black dress is so ubiquitous, it's an iconic thing," does the white tee fit that description?

A white T-shirt is ubiquitous but is it an iconic thing? I highly doubt it but with the white T-shirt, you can throw it on in an emergency just like the little black dress. There are so many different ways to wear the white T-shirt.

You can be like Kelly Rowland and make it as simple as possible, throw it on over a nice pair of jeans and add some bad pair of pumps and off you go.

Or

You can be do more with it like Laura Ellner founder of ontheracks.com: Her blazer made the look more professor and actually looks like she put effort into the outfit.






Or





You can be like my all time favorite Kim Kardashian:Tuck it inside a beautiful formfitting skirt, which gives the T-shirt an illusion of a blouse


Is White T-shirt the New Black Dress? Definitely not because trends like this are just that 'a trend'. But for now enjoy this lazy, effortless look because I doubt its here to stay.
