I like everything about this, from the kind of Grecian drapiness to the golden hue to the playful bit of fringe at the hem.
Another slightly metallic choice with a really nice bit of twisty business going on at the neckline.
A well-priced velvet dress in my color-of-the-moment, mustard yellow.
Tonal leopard print and a gloriously streamlined cocoon-ish shape: perfection.
You can’t go wrong with velvet and lace: so sweetly feminine.
A simple wrap dress like this would be aces with a statement-y necklace.
I like the smocking here, and the cool square neckline.
Another velvet dress with a cute, retroish silhouette.
A metallic chevron print is loud in a good way.
I do not especially like bustiers or tiered skirts and this dress has both of those things, but I still find myself drawn to it, perhaps because of the boss star print.
What do they call skirts that flounce out like this at the hem? Sometimes I wish I’d hung on to my Fairchild Dictionary of Fashion after I left Lucky. In any case, I usually don’t love that either, but everything else here is so clean-lined that it works.
This, I believe, is what they call a tulip hem, and I think it’s very pretty.
I believe that this rhinestone-studded number could pass as black-tie attire.
This dress has a certain hippie-goth vibe that I admire.
I don’t know what they call those skirts, either, but I do know what creates the flounce: godets! Wait, maybe it’s a trumpet skirt?
I think my middle school fancy dance dress (the red & green ball? I can’t remember) was EXTREMELY similar to the Reformation dress, only in a green and purple floral print.

Trumpet skirt!
Yep, trumpet skirt.
The Cleobella Emerson dress (the last one) is screaming my name except that I’ve nowhere to wear it. Sigh. Gorgeous (or at least, “very me!”).
Ooohh I love party dresses! Kim thought of you today…I went to a lunch today where Tibi founder Amy Smilovic was the speaker. She was down to earth and really lovely.
I’ve noticed all theses models in sandals have nude nail shades. It seems to a trend still be carrying over from the summer. No vampy shades for the holidays? Just wondering before getting a party pedicure…
Oohhh! How about a nail polish round up?
The black wrap dress is super cute. It’s 14 degrees where I live now, with a wind chill of 2. I want to be somwhere where I can where that dress.
