If there’s one thingKelly Clarksonhas taught me, it’s that there are many ways to wear dresses. Fromruched dressestocomfy knit styles, the singer has inspired me with so many eye-catching dresses, and her latest take on the little black dress is no different.

In an Instagram post fromThe Kelly Clarkson Show, the host wore a dress with short sleeves, ruched detailing, and intricate lace. The all-black dress had a bustier top and flattering pleats for a voluminous appearance.

Clarkson isn’t the only star to wear a LBD recently —Nicole Kidmanwore the timeless style earlier this fall. Clarkson’s lace version instantly dresses up an outfit without much thought on your part. If you already have a little black dress, jazz up your closet with these romantic lace options from Amazon, Nordstrom, and more — they start at $50.

For those wanting to copy Clarkson’s on-set style, this dress at Amazon seems so similar. It has a high crew neckline that keeps your chest covered, and the cinched waist has an adjustable tie for a flattering fit. I also like that it’s designed with pleats around the bottom for a fuller look. In addition to black, the dress is available in 13 hues like burgundy, dark green, and deep purple.

You can also make the lace trend even warmer with this option, which has three-quarter-length sleeves. The dress shows a subtle amount of skin with a V-neckline, which stars likeZendaya and Kirsten Dunsthave been spotted in. “The style is so flattering; it brought out the best of my shape,”one five-star reviewer said. “The length is just right and the lace is soft as can be.”

Reese Witherspoonis a fan of puff-sleeve dresses, and I’m definitely planning on combining the two design details with this style at Lulu’s. The dress has a sweetheart top with seamed cups for support, short puff sleeves, and black flowers for a romantic and elegant vibe. Plus, there’s an inner lining beneath the lace so skin won’t show through.
