7 Ways to spice up your little black dress

I'm in love with this black A-line dress Zoe Saldana wore during her visit to "Extra" Universal Studios Hollywood. But what I loved even more than the LBD itself was the way homegirl was rocking it.

She made what could be considered a very formal frock look super laid back and effortlessly chic–all thanks to a pair of red ankle booties! This is exactly why I love little black dresses so much–because you can literally get away with wearing one to every single holiday party without looking like you're wearing the same outfit. All it takes is a little re-styling!
