We all know you love it too!
No matter how much you are scraping the empty barrel that is your wardrobe, no matter how bare your chest of drawers may be and no matter how much the highstreet has nothing to offer you, there is always one thing that will never let you down...your little black dress (LBD).
If you're on the look out for another knock out number then we have a little list of some of the best LBDs the highstreet has to offer. Everything from floaty, to tight, from plain to ruffled there is something out there for you. Just find yourself some Bang-Bang shoes and you'll be ready for anything the night has to throw at you.
This River Island beauty is perfect for any nights out you may have planned for the summer months. At just £15 it's a bargain and well worth it for the amount of use it could potentially get.
Whether it is raining or shining, this dress has enough spanish ruffles to be worn in summer and never fails for a nice winter outfit. All in all, a lovely safe shape, with some funky detail that gives you that little edge in the crowd. For extra sass and style bring your hair to one side and curl it into a soft ponytail - just to complete the look.
We love the shaping around the bossom of this little Asos number. If you're looking to show off your figure this might just be the fitted LBD to give you a helping hand. Only £40.

One shoulder dresses are very trendy in 2011, no matter what the season is. With both designers and celebrities alike embracing their sophistication, it's about time you got one in your wardrobe.

No LBD would be complete without the heals....have a look at these babies from RiverIsland. For £100 you get all that heal, so get practising before your big night arrives!
