Dress Week: A Dress for Holiday Parties

Dec 3, 2019

For a couple of years now, Reformation has been the biggest thing in dresses.  With high slits, flirty silhouettes, and feminine prints, their wares are certainly lovely (especially this Wildflower dress), but a little pricey.  So when you find a dress that has that Reformation look at a less-than-Reformation-price, you snap it up.

This & Other Stories Satin Midi Dress is fabulous.  The square neckline, the high slit, the puff sleeve — yes, yes, and yes.

As for how to wear it, you can go several directions, but all of them depend on the shoes you choose.  Here are four:

One. High-heeled sandals require dangly earrings and a simple clutch.

Two. A sock boot with tights goes with black hoops and chain crossbody.

Three. Over-the-knee suede boots should have a cool cocktail ring and a killer leather jacket.

And four, a glam mesh sandal with a dramatic earring and a red lipstick.

A word of caution, however, this dress is satin.  So if you’re going to wear tights, you’ll need Static Guard to prevent static cling.

Saw It On Social: Rooted

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]
