A Little Black Dress Two Ways + 25% Off of Purchases of $150+ Sale at Saks OFF 5TH

This post is sponsored by Saks OFF 5TH and ShopStyle.  All opinions are my own.

This summer I’ve been sharing with you how Saks OFF 5TH is one of my go-to destinations for finding high quality looks for less.  Today I’m sharing a new find with you and styling it two ways.  Everything I’m sharing is under $79 and on top of that, today you can save 25% OFF purchases of $150 or more!

Little Black Dress Two Ways

I love a little black dress and think you need to have at least one, if not a couple, go-to LBDs in your closet.  If you choose wisely, you’ll be able to find a dress that you can wear in a variety of ways either dressed down or dressed up!  And they don’t have to break the bank…this Love Ady twist-front dress was originally $128 but is now under $50 at Saks OFF 5TH!  I’m wearing a medium, but I think it runs just a bit small…so if you’re between sizes, size up.  Sharing how I style it two ways below!

Casual LBD Look

Love Ady Twist Front Dress | Vintage Havana Gigi Sneakers | Sam Edelman Backpack | Gorjana Crescent Pendant Necklace (similar here) | Saks Fifth Avenue paperclip necklace (similar here) | Jean Jacket 

I love to pair a dress with a pair of sneakers!  This combo is one of my favorites.  These sneakers are my new favorites…I love the black and white color scheme.  You can wear these year round…I’m already envisioning wearing them with jeans, a leather jacket, & a scarf come fall!  The sneakers run true to size.  To continue with the more casual theme, I grabbed this cute Sam Edelman faux leather backpack.  It has an adjustable drop handle and adjustable backpack straps.  Throw a denim jacket on top and you’re set!  I got this jacket earlier in the summer and it’s my favorite jean jacket.  I love the distressing on it and the color.  I have the medium!  Lastly, a good layered necklace situation is necessary whether you are dressed up or down, and so I’m wearing this Saks Fifth Avenue paperclip necklace and this Gorjana crescent pendant necklace with both looks.

Date Night LBD Look

Love Ady Twist Front Dress | Steve Madden Suede Ankle Strap Sandals | La Regale Metallic Faux Python Convertible Clutch | Gorjana Crescent Pendant Necklace (similar here) | Saks Fifth Avenue paperclip necklace (similar here)

Taking the dress from day to night is simple!  Change out your shoes and handbag and you’re ready for date night.  I love these Steve Madden ankle-strap sandals.  The tan color is so gorgeous and they are very comfortable.  I have three pairs of this same style shoe now in three colors because that’s how comfortable it is.  They run true to size and are under $60.  For the handbag, I grabbed this trendy python print clutch.  I love that it’s small but it’s still a statement piece with the snake print and metallic gleam.  The gold strap is removable and it’s only $39.  Such a steal.
