Belle's B-Day Wish List: Part IV

May 28, 2010

Yesterday, we covered dresses that I would want to wear to work.  Today, we’ll be looking at some dresses that are perfect for play.  Oh, and sequins.  We know how I feel about sequins…

FCUK Sequin Dress (Asos, $271)

Pale gold sequins, 3/4 sleeves, mini dress.  Yes, please.

Lela Rose Threaded Sheath (ShopBop, $1,595)

This pretty appliqued dress is perfect for a dinner out with friends.  I’d add a rustic men’s belt and a flat sandal for casual events.  If you want to dress it up, I would add a cuff bracelet and a metallic gladiator platform.

Jenni Kayne Fan Dress (ShopBop, $595)

It is my sincerest hope that Rent the Runway will start carrying Jenni Kayne.  Her styles are modern without being too bold.  Plus, I love yellow.

Milly Printed Chiffon Maxi (Net-a-Porter, $545)

Need something extra special for a casual summer wedding?  A wedding at a vineyard perhaps?  Yes, I think I might be wearing this to Miss M’s wedding.

Tiered Poplin Dress (BCBG, $238 + 30%off)

This is the kind of dress that I would buy to throw on for those unexpected dinners and drink dates.  Not with those shoes though. Yikes.

Antik Batik Walice Gown (Net-a-Porter, $970)

Gorgeous.  Different.  And probably weighs 20 pounds.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
