Must have dresses - Thread Social H136202

Posted Oct 6th 2008 at 8:00PM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


Menswear-inspired dresses, like this one by Thread Social, are the Holy Grail of weekday dressing: A look that's both irresistibly charming and work-appropriate. Not that we're surprised - after all, what's not to love about the juxtaposition of feminine ruffles and staid houndstooth? Nothing!

Let's finish our budget week this this cute retro-inspired dress - we love the color, the pretty frills at the shoulders and the asymmetrical keyhole detail at the neckline. We would wear this with tights and sweet kitten heels. How would you wear it?

Dress of the day - Old Navy Belted Cowl Neck Dress

Posted Oct 2nd 2008 at 2:30PM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


We believe that a cowl neck instantly makes everything more sophisticated. Case in point? This simple dress by Old Navy: It's a jersey shift with a grosgrain ribbon belt - nothing special, really - but the cowl neck gives it instant lady-like appeal. A perfect fall layering piece.

Dress of the day - Target Notched Boatneck Dress

Posted Oct 1st 2008 at 1:02PM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


This flirty red shift from Target is so perfectly mod that people will think it's a vintage piece. The geometric shape is further accented by the notch at the boatneck; it's such a nice decorative touch that you won't need to wear a necklace. Better accesorize with big bangles and some killer platforms.

Dress of the day - Sheath dress from Society for Rational Dress

Posted Sep 23rd 2008 at 10:01AM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


This futuristic little black dress comes from a company with a name taken from Victorian times:

The Rational Dress Society protests against the introduction of any fashion in dress that either deforms the figure, impedes the movements of the body, or in any way tends to injure the health.

This dress certainly lives up to those rarefied standards. The brass clips at the bodice, nipped waist and front flap pockets stand out from the sea of pretty dresses out there.

Dress of the day - The Suzie dress

Posted Sep 22nd 2008 at 11:35AM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Accessories, Dresses, Must Haves


We love this black taffeta party dress not only because it's absolutely darling in the best way possible, but because of what it represents: A dress this gorgeous is made to be worn to a party as glamorous and fizzy as a glass of champagne.

Forget practicality for once and splurge in an honest-to-goodness party dress - if you don't have a party to wear it to, throw one!

Five dresses - the sweater dress

Gallery: Five dresses - the sweater dress



We've patiently been waiting for fall to arrive, and now that the air is finally turning crisp we've been rewarded with a most deliciously soft trend for fall: The sweater dress.

We love that there's such a large variety of sweater dresses to choose from right now, and of course we love the sheer versatility of the sweater dress itself. Wear it barelegged in early fall and add tights and layers as the weather cools. You can even wear it as a tunic over your favorite jeans! It's rare that a trend is as versatile as this, so we're riding this one until the weather warms up.

Dress of the day - Sweater dress by Tahari

Posted Sep 19th 2008 at 8:07AM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


This sweater dress makes you look like you're actually wearing a cable-knit sweater and a black pencil skirt! Awesome - because now you can pull off the classic look without looking frumpy - the "skirt" is smooth and sleek, so you'll look more like a woman and less like a fisherman. Not that we have anything against fishermen, we swear.

Dress of the day - Cashmere Flora Dress

Posted Sep 18th 2008 at 1:00PM by Roxanna Sarmiento

Filed under: Clothing, Dresses, Must Haves


Maybe we're inspired by the Shirley MacLaine Chanel movie, but we can't get enough of chic and easy to wear dresses like this one from J. Crew. It's sophisticated and sporty (let's face it - it's basically a super long tee) but it's the dainty cashmere flower detail at the waist that sold us - we're suckers for things that are beautiful just because they can be.
