How could it be that we never had a little black dress as a theme? You know how I love black clothing. Although I have to say that I find myself wearing colours more and more. I even bought yellow trousers. YELLOW TROUSERS! Yeah, you saw that right. But let’s stick with the theme and I show you the yellow ones soon!
Shelbee of Shelbee On the Edge and myself started this series in February 2018, but we had been working together a year previous. So you can say we really like to host these series! Every 15th of the month we show our Good Buy or Good-Bye item. And we want you to join us. The more the merrier!
What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book?
It is a collage of outfits from all different women! You can choose yourself whether you want to show a Good Buy (which is an item you are really exited about) or a Good-Bye ( which is an item you are going to say good bye to). We’ll keep buying a Bad Buy from now and then, you know, it was so cheap, you were in a hurry and really wanted(needed) to buy something etc.
But of course we also have those purchases that can make us so very happy. A piece of clothing that you have had for years and that you wear a lot. Or something you bought on a holiday, and every time you wear it you get that holiday feeling back. Every month you can choose which item you want to send in. A Good Buy or a Good-Bye. We will provide a theme for each month!
So let’s start with The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Little black dress!
First my dear blogging friend and co-host Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge
Jodie of Jodie’s Touch of Style
I don’t have many black dresses anymore, but Lesley gave me this one a while back and I wore it very recently. It’s a great dress for showing off all of the fun colors that I like to wear.
Gail of Is This Mutton
I like the contrast collar and the fact it looks a bit 60s.
Di of Di-alog

My second outfit is a sleeveless mid weight black knit dress, with a leopard print peplum topper layered over it. I would say this dress was a good buy because of its versatility. It can be worn with a layer over or under it-there are so many options!

Here is my good buy! This is the Soiree dress from April Cornell. I bought it several years ago, but it didn’t fit until recently.
And here is my little black dress

This photo I used for years as my profile one. I really love it and I loved the dress a lot. It was a very heavy quality stretch dress that I wore to pieces. I bought it on a fashion show evening of a, then to me, co-worker in her shop. I wore it to festivals like this, with the biker boots. So cool! A very Good Buy!
June’s theme will be: Sandals!
Send your photo with a few sentences if it is a Good Buy or a Good-Bye and we will put you in the spotlights! Send it please before the 10th of each month to shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com or to batennancy@gmail.com
By joining The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book, you agree to receive a monthly reminder email for next month!
And now hop over to Shelbee’s blog to see what the other fashion bloggers are wearing!
I love all the different versions of little black dresses! Fun fun fun. Now let’s see some sandals for the summertime!

Good to see the little black dress on all of you ladies and that they were good buys! Love that vintage or 60s style Gail is wearing. I have a number of black dresses and i have to be in a mood to wear them, but I usually have to wear a scarf or earrings that are worm to offset the black.
You look great Nancy, I know black is one of your favs to wear.
Have a great weekend!

What a wonderful collage of LBD’s. It’s been years since I had one in my wardrobe, but there are quite a few stunners here. You look amazing in yours, Nancy, and I remember that profile photo! I’m loving Shelbee’s dress very much too! xxx
So many fun and cute LBD’s! I used to have one a lot lie Jodie’s and I loved that it paired with just about anything.
It’s a fun way to see how everyone styles the LBD. Great sharing.

Isn’t it something how the LBD is so different? Thanks for this edition. I’ll try to remember for next month because we all know I’ve got lots of sandals!
