I managed to catch a bit of the Fashion section on This Morning yesterday before work, where Jason Gardiner (Dancing on Ice's Mr Nasty) was talking about my favourite subject - Wardrobe Staples (although how an ex Dancer/Choreographer/Ice Dancing Judge got the Fashion "Gig" I will never know). Apparently he was saying that they are now referred to as "Wardrobe Hero's", Um, I quite like that expression! It had me visualising a crisp white shirt or a black cashmere v neck, charging towards me on a big white Horse to save me from my morning "what shall I wear today" wardrobe dilemma's.
Anyway, he showed this really lovely Little Black Dress from M&S but (and this is one thing that always gets me ranting) when I went onto the website, it wasn't there! Doesn't it just drive you crazy when TV and magazines feature garments that are either not yet in store, or have been in, and gone straight out again, never to return and all you are left with is the page you tore out of the publication to drool and cry over, whilst you spend the next two months searching on ebay for that elusive piece that nobody else in the world seemed to be able to get hold of either!
However, I did stumble upon a different little black beauty, this gorgeous number from the Autograph range at only £55. I was unable to copy bigger pictures, sorry, but the dress is belted and I love the puff sleeves.

Marks and Spencer
I would wear it with a statement pearl necklace from Dorothy Perkins at only £10.

and these gorgeous shoes, aren't they stunning? They are by Sam Edelman (not a name I am familiar with) but at only £165 from my-wardrobe, I am sure we will be seeing more of his reasonably priced heels in future.
So the Outfit is planned, all I need now is a table booked at some lovely restaurant for my wedding anniversary on 30th March, although somehow I think the only meal I will be getting requires salt and vinegar and gets eaten out of the paper, to save on the washing up - sigh...
Do you have a little black Dress?
