[Guest Post] Hilary Inspired: 1 LBD, 3 Ways

By Erika Brechtel @smallshopstudio

Please welcome Hilary of Hilary Inspired today!

I’m so excited about this guest! Hilary recently underwent a major blog design rehaul with a forward-thinking layout that gets my design brain all excited and stuff. But she also strives more than most to create original content — from snippets of the Dallas design scene, to her own home projects, photography, and interviews with local designers and shops, Hilary has mos. def. inspired me on several occasions. I think you’ll agree, she’s a gem…

[Guest Post] Hilary Inspired: 1 LBD, 3 Ways

Hello, small shop friends! My name is Hilary and I can say with deepest sincerity that I am thrilled and honored to be guest posting on Erika’s blog today. Erika is not only a talented designer and blogger but a wonderfully generous person as well. I am a big fan, to say the least, and incredibly grateful to Erika for all her encouragement and guidance with my own work. Having the opportunity to share a post with her readers has been both nerve-racking and exhilarating… I knew it had to be good, so I stepped up my game a bit for today’s feature!!

As we close in fast and furious on the holiday season, I thought some savvy sartorial inspiration for the wardrobe would be good for us all. Here’s how I killed three “birds” with one little black dress. I kept each look simple and chose a fun accessory to style up with complimentary hosiery, jewelry, and shoes. The recipe is easy… One *little black dress, a pair of killer shoes, and your favorite stand-out accessory!
