Black is always in style

We know it's cliche, but a little black dress is the go-to that every woman should have. It hides a multitude of sins, but it's very important that you pay attention to the waistline. Make sure it's high enough that it doesn't accentuate the width of your widest part, and the skirt should float out from there, like this Suzi Chin Maggy Boutique Ruched Jersey Dress, $138 at Nordstrom.
