Fashionistas everywhere have at least one thing in common hanging in their closets: an LBD (little black dress). In fact, a wardrobe that lacks this signature piece is simply incomplete. Having a go-to LBD allows you to wake up and slip on your favorite black frock without having to worry about looking last season. And while your pair of suede fringed moccasin booties have an expiration date comparable to that of dairy products, an LBD is considered a non-perishable item. Although one can never go wrong with an LBD, you also don't want to be caught sporting the same tired look all over town. To keep things fresh, here are 5 easy ways in which you can add a little spice to your favorite LBD ensemble.

New York Fashion Week Coverage 2010
As people have become more and more environmentally conscious, gravitating towards organic foods over processed foods, they have also become more aware of the products they're using on their hair and skin. Organic beauty product production has been booming in recent years, so we decided to talk to the founder of Alima Pure, Kate O'Brien, to get a better understanding of the rising beauty trend.
SC: What is in mineral makeup that makes it better for your skin than regular products?
Kate O'Brien: Although mineral makeup has some ingredients that are soothing to the skin and protect it from the sun (titanium dioxide and zinc oxide), it's really more about what is NOT in the products. Alima Pure foundation is free of all common irritants like chemical additives, fillers, and fragrances.
SC: Is it better for people with sensitive skin to use mineral makeup, or can it be irritating? Can it be helpful to people who are prone to breakouts and why?
