DRESS, HEELS, SUNNIES: (c/o) Neiman Marcus

Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday! This morning I had a meeting to discuss a very exciting project (happening mid-November) so stay tuned for updates! It’s something that, to be honest, I never imagined doing! But I’m staying open to whatever life brings me and as I mentioned in my previous post, am doing things that take me out of my comfort zone to push me further in life. Ekk!

Side note, can you believe it’s November already? Time has flown by! And the holidays (gasp) are here. For those of you who love the holidays (like me), now is the best time to start planning your winter wardrobe. (In South Florida, “winter wardrobe” means long sleeves.) With a schedule stacked full of cocktail parties, charity functions, family gatherings, potential run-ins with ex-boyfriends friends you haven’t seen in years, you have to look great. Not sure where to start? Don’t fret! I’m here to guide you this season…

To kick things off, I’ve decided to feature this dress by Alexis from Neiman Marcus. I love it because:

1.) It’s Alexis; she can do no wrong.

2.) It’s not a LBD.

3.) It’s party ready.

All you have to do is throw on some heels (option to add tights) to offset the shape of the dress, grab a cute bag and voila! That’s it. Bring on the champs!

Yes, I get it. The urge to accessorize over the holidays is strong. But trust me, especially in this instance, sometimes less is more. Take it from Coco Chanel, “before leaving the house, a lady should look in the mirror and remove one accessory.” You don’t want to look like you’re overdoing it. As long as your dress is quality, it will make a statement.

Take a closer look at this dress. It’s a rich color. It’s trimmed with white and blue velvet at the collar and bell sleeves. It ties in the back to create an effortless drape. It’s easy. It’s chic. And great on just about any figure.
