My favorite fashion mantra has always been, when in doubt, turn to your favorite LBD. Not too far behind is the Little White dress. Both are classics that you cannot mess up (unless you really try) and who better to turn to for inspiration than some of our favorite celebrities. Here are some of my personal favorite black and white looks from recent times...

Selena Gomez
I was pleasantly surprised to see the usually clad in jeans and cute tees Selena Gomez, in this elegant Christian Cota outfit. It infuses the right amount of sophistication to her look while still being very age appropriate. Love the hair and her luscious red lips!

Jada Pinkett-Smith
Looks like the Smith family is really serious about promoting "The Karate Kid". So far they've been to Beijing, London, Germany, Madrid, Norway and most recently, Paris. Phew! This of course is Jada Pinkett-Smith's super chic Giambattista Valli off-the-shoulder dress from the Paris premiere. I love the dress but those bangs have got to go. I also can't help but be intrigued (once again) by little Willow's sense of style.

Frequently asked questions
Cameron Diaz
What's better than black or white? A delicious combination of the two of course! Case in point, Cameron Diaz at the Knight and Day” in Bordeaux. Sure, her Vionnet Resort 2011 dress may have been dangerously short but when you have legs like that, who's complaining...

Emmanuelle Chriqui
Non boring LBD's always deserve an applause and Emmanuelle looked anything but boring in this BCBG Max Azria dress at the ESPY Awards. It's sheer and sexy at the top and feminine and flirty at the bottom and best of all, it shows off her perfect, lovely legs!

Jessica Biel
Okay, minus that one crazy sleeve I would have loved Jessica Biel in this Vionnet dress but of course, Jessica being Jessica, still manages to look pretty damn gorgeous at the “The A-Team” Madrid photo call. What do you think of her look?

Vanessa Hudgens
I know "champagne" is not technically white...not even close, but this Reem Acra dress is way too gorgeous for me to leave out. Vanessa wore this to boyfriend, Zac Efron's new movie, Charlie St. Cloud's premiere and looked absolutely adorable. She wore her tresses long and wavy as always and even sported henna on her palm! Pretty!

Marisa Miller
Now there's nothing quite as beautiful as a draped dress and this Alexander Wang dress does look pretty fantastic but why oh why must she ruin it with those shoes?!

Angelina Jolie
Fish to water. Frosting to cake. Snow to the Arctic. Black to Angelina. So, I wasn't the least bit surprised when I saw her in this Emporio Armani strapless mini dress. It works for her of course! Plus after watching her in those hideous wigs in Salt, I think I'm never going to complain about Angelina in black again. EVER!

Amanda Crew
I know, her look is not all white but it would be a crime not to include this here. Amanda looks DIVINE in this L’Wren Scott tuxedo style dress. The only question I have is how tall is she?! I mean look at her legs! They literally go on forever...

Amber Heard
And finally my favorite...Amber Heard in this strapless Marchesa lace cocktail dress. There's a certain sweetness to this dress and yet it exudes a definite sexiness and it fits her like a glove!
