Everyone needs a classic LBD in their closet but when it gets chilly out, the sleeveless look just isn't an option for me. So I love this simple frock from Jones New York. It’s elegant, understated and comes with a waist-cinching belt. I’d pair it with some statement earrings, a red lip and a classic heel. Perfection!
