The Little Black Dress Party is a classic choice for every occasion. The perfect party theme to get the girls together for some fun or use it for a bridal luncheon, a shower, a divorce party, a promotion party, or even just an inspirational party.

Just like your closet staple, your use of accessories will determine the degree of formality or casualness your Little Black Dress (LBD) Party will have. You can create a more formal look with diamonds - crystals, silver, and candlelight. You'll provide a more classic chic feel using pearls - either bright white or the creamy opalescent of champagne. Or give your party sleek simplicity using a single trendy color - black with a vivacious yellow or red, black with a silvery blue or gray, and black with the jewel tones of emerald, ruby, or sapphire.

Take the Little Black Dress look to your table. Create a table setting that will delight your guests. Keep your table mostly black with just a hint of your accent color. Purchase inexpensive black dresses from thrift stores to use as chair covers or rent black skirted chair covers. Use black dinnerware on black table linens. Then add your accessories -
