Versatile Evening Gown Can be Worn 3 Different Ways

The ties on this pink satin gown can be worn 3 different ways for 3 different looks.

You can purchase the jewelry and handbags with the gown, but I really don’t like them and think you’d be better off purchasing nicer looking accessories separately (the purse, especially, looks like somebody’s amateur craft project).  There dress is […]

Think Pink: 3 Formal Dresses

I love the detail on this dress — the ruffles (trendy and not over the top), the bow, the sparkles:
