Fashion Trend: Little Black Dress

Nothing is more timeless and stylish than the famous LBD (little black dress).  Ever since Aubrey Hepburn and Coco Chanel made it THE dress to own and wear, women have been turning to the LBD over and over again.  In fact, little black dresses are perfect for: weddings, parties, going out with friends, or other special events.  At Flourish Boutique, we always have a handful of LBD's in stock, and we always try to make each one unique and special -- think touches of crochet, lace, beading, or tulle.  Plus, we know when you are searching for little black dresses, it can be pricey; but at Flourish, we have some very affordable options!  Whether you are looking for a classy selection or perhaps an edgy dress instead, LBD dresses are ideal and also very versatile choices for all four seasons.  Can you believe tomorrow is the first day of spring?!  Since Indiana has been freezing, we are finally ready for some warmer weather! As we all love wearing black dresses all year round, we suggest just adding some bright colorful jewelry or shoes, for a pop of color for spring! 


This crochet LBD is gorgeous! You will have unlimited style and options when you've got this little black dress in your closet! The crochet pattern is a subtle way to add some floral to your outfit! This dress is a great choice for date night or a special evening out.  We styled this with a chunky necklace, to give it more of an edgy glamour look and added these black studded heels.  To give the outfit that SPRING pop of color, we accessorized with a gorgeous pastel blue purse!  
You need this versatile and stylish LBD in your closet!

This next look has classy written all over it!  If you are looking for a chic flowy dress, than this one is perfect!  This simple little black dress is a perfect choice a date night or any special event.  If you are looking for a more modest look, you can pair our black bralet underneath.  You would never even know this dress and the bralet are two pieces, but they are!   Our lace bralets are perfect for layering and can be used to make low cut dresses more modest.  To complete this look, we styled this dress with a bright bold necklace for a pop of color.  We also paired it with our favorite studded shoes!

How glamourous is this next dress?!  We, Flourish Girls, are obsessed with this ballerina inspired LBD! We paired this dress with these fun floral tights (bonus: they are by SPANX, which give them that great trimming and secure feeling) and they give the overall look an edgy vibe!  If you're looking for a more traditional look, you could pair this dress simply with bare legs and some cute heels! Either way, put on your favorite pair of heels and dance the night away in this little black dress! The tulle full skirt will have you twirling at every chance you get.  This girly dress is perfect for a dance or special occasion!  We styled this outfit with turquoise heels and a statement necklace in the same color, which are both definitely great options to add the pop of color that will make your LBD stand out!

Color Trends: Black & White

Hello everyone! 
Happy Tuesday and Happy March! I can't believe it is March already! Yayyy! I don't know about you, but the Flourish Girls are hoping for some warmer weather!  The new month and eminent warmer weather has me thinking about what kinds of things I want to add to my spring wardrobe.  Moreover, I've been pondering what patterns and colors I am lusting for this season as well.  As much as I love bright colors: I LOVE neutral colors like black and white as well. You can't go wrong with these chic and classic tones! The nice thing about neutral hues is: they are appropriate to wear in any season, as well as for any event. Whether you are looking for styles for work or for special occasions, at Flourish we have you covered, and our boutique merchandise is always super affordable too!  


I can't get over how dainty and classy this white lace dress is!  Could it be more perfect?!  You will look stunning in this long sleeved lacy dress! Style this gorgeous dress with some pointed heels and a bold statement necklace! And how more classy can you get than pairing this outfit with these polka dot tights?! I am just obsessed with this whole outfit! LOVE! 


I also love this varsity inspired dress! You can't go wrong with a mix of a little bit sporty and a little bit sassy style! This would be perfect for a girls day spent lunching and shopping! The black hue has an edgy vibe to it, but add a bright statement necklace to give the dress a pop of color and contrast! Love this dress, but thinking what other colors does it come in?  Good News: we have it in classic white too!


If you're like me, you not only loved the dress above, but were instantly drawn to those sexy lace up black heels too!  These shoes are to die for! The detail on them is eye catching to say the least! Little details like cut outs and the lace-up style, make for big impact in your look of the day!  And, when thinking about neutral colors to wear, these will match perfectly...of course they would look amazing with almost anything you decide to buy or wear for that matter!


This Kate Spade inspired coat is so cute {especially with it's affordable Flourish price point too}! This striped jacket will be the perfect addition to your Spring wardrobe! The black and white stripes just add so much sophistication and class! 


And while stripes are one of my go to looks, black and white color tones look stunning in a variety of different prints and patterns. This black and white TRIBAL print cardigan is a perfect layering piece! The fringe detail adds the perfect special touch! Style this with a dress as shown or make a casual ootd with your favorite skinny jeans and a long sleeved top! 


Black and white looks sharp in dresses, coats, vests, and of course skirts too!  This skirt is mixing up our emotions literally... we are obsessed with this "Mixed Emotions Skirt!" I mean lace with faux leather-- how can you go wrong?! Style this tiered beauty with a bold colorful top to get our model's look!


This tunic is the perfect form of black and white! I love how versatile this top is! You can easily pair it with; dresses, jeans, or leggings! This color blocked, best selling top has always been one of my personal favorites, but it must have struck other fashionistas the same way:  we have had to restock it several times and still can't seem to keep it in stock! Get it before it flies out the door again! Bonus tip: it is so flattering on everyone regardless of age, size or coloring!
