It’s Posh, It’s Pink, It’s the Perfect Formal Dress

Flatteringly fitted yet full and feminine, this dress is perfect for when you want the best of both worlds.

I like the pink gloves with it, too.  This dress is called Satin Doll, and the bodice is bejeweled.
 
Pair it with this cute little prim and proper clutch:

All of the above items can be ordered from lorelie.com, which ships worldwide […]

Sexy Dress Combines the Best of a Long Evening Gown and a Short Cocktail Dress

Short in the front and long in the back, this halter dress by La Femme shows off your legs while giving you the elegance of a longer gown.  I love the multiple satin bands around the middle which end in the bow.

It’s available in gold and a variety of other colors (including white, which isn’t shown).

Get it […]

Look Amazing in this Unique Evening Gown

Unique and elegant are good words to describe this formal dress, from the way the seams are sewn and fitted to the strappy bodice to the beautifully low-cut back.  You can get it in red, white, or gold.

Trains seem to be a red carpet favorite recently, and I can see why.  They add an extra touch of elegance […]

Hammered Satin Dress in Red With Peek-a-Boo Button Slits

The detailing just below the neckline is what makes this red satin dress special:  notice the buttons, darting, and cutouts.  Very cool!

It’s made of 100% silk, and you can get it at Nine West, which ships within the United States only.  See their look book and sale sections, too.
If you’re searching for a more formal […]

Polka-Dot Chic, Dress for Spring

The elegance of a black cocktail dress and the playfulness of polka-dots combine to make a great springtime dress in this pretty print from Frederick’s of Hollywood.  Great for a night out or for those days when you just want to look your best.

Notice the belt-buckle-style shoulder straps — very cute.   The straps aren’t the […]

Dolce Jovani, Designer Dress of Your Dreams

This sensational Dolce Jovani dress is currently $900 at Prom Dreams.

If you’re the kind of person who has $900 to spend on a dress, I have two things to say to you:

I think this dress would look especially striking on someone with an olive complexion.
Let’s be friends.

The piece has that greco-roman look that’s popular right now but […]

Turn Heads In This Stylish Cocktail Dress

I’m seeing a lot of yellow in this season’s catalogues.  This dress by Scala incorporates that color theme while the design has a style all its own.

It looks nice in the blue and the red as well, but I think the yellow dress with blue accents is the prettiest of all the color choices.
This dress […]

Why does it take five Irishmen to change a lightbulb?One to change the bulb.
Four to remark about how grand the old bulb was.
Haha.  Just a little Irish humor for you in preparation for St. Patrick’s Day.  And speaking of preparing for St. Patty’s, better buy something green now.  You don’t want to be rummaging through your closet on the […]

Another Great Betsey Johnson Dress

Okay, I know I just did a post about Betsey Johnson designer dresses not too long ago, and I wasn’t planning on doing another one so soon, but I saw this dress, and it was just too cute not to feature.

I love the details around the hem, and there’s a hidden wire lining that helps […]
