Pretty Things at Every Price: Cocktail Dresses

August 11, 2010 by

So we’ve already done strapless dresses, maxi dresses, and now we’re onto cocktail dresses! If you have some place fancy to go in the next few months, we might have the frock for you…

  1. Der: One Shoulder Special Occasion Dress-I really like the Grecian style of this dress. I could totally see it jazzed up with some gold accessories and strappy heels. Also it sorta reminds me of a short version of my bridesmaid dresses, so maybe that’s why I love it. 🙂
  2. Court: The Chictopia Dress-First off, this is a GREAT price, not only on this dress, but on this site (they tend to run on the higher side for their adorable goods).  Second is its the LBD, can’t go wrong with that.  Love the waistline and could accessorize the hell outta this dress. 
  3. AK: Georgette Dress-I’ve purchased a dress from this site before and it did not disappoint. They have great prices for some turbo cute dresses.  This is just one more cute dress that I’ve had my eye on for quite a while. I love the flower, I love the neckline and I love the COLOR, you know because I’m definitely a COLOR type of gal.
  4. Sarah: Antonio Melani “Ksenia” Dress-I LOVE this dress because of it’s fun colors, but it also has a very elegant cut, which would be perfect for a cocktail party!

Purple People Eater

May 20, 2010 by

I have never really been a pink type of girl. I like pink, but I don’t LOVE pink. When I was little, my favorite color was purple. I wanted purple everything. My first car was even purple (no idea what I was thinking) So, purple is still near and dear to my heart. Purple looks great accented with oranges or greens and my personal fav turquoise!
