Showing off some curves

A girl can never have enough little black dresses and this is my pick for fall. The shape is a basic sheath, but the wavy ribbed details make it special. Wouldn't this look great at a little soirée?

Pair with wine

It's fun to pretty it up for special occasions and this dress would definitely impress on a night out. The demure boatneck plays against the deep peekaboo cut in the front while the contrasting border and two bows add just enough feminine detail.

Pink obsession

I knew this dress was for me as soon as I saw it, except I have nowhere to wear it to. I'm not a celebrity who walks down red carpets and I'm not a bridesmaid who needs something this fabulous. Darn it!

Walking on the wild side

This dress has a simple silhouette, but the rest of it really is not so simple... There is ruching at the waist, a daring 7" slit, and of course the large leopard print. Rowr!

Lady in red

This poppy coloured dress is great in a professional office and can be pulled off the shoulders for drinks after work! Instant va-va-voom!

Lacy nothings

How cute is this little black dress? I love the criss-cross detail on the bust and the modesty piece in lace. It's girly and sexy at the same time.

Bandage me up, please!

One shoulder dresses have always been at the bottom of my dress style list, along with bubble dresses and pouffy eighties prom dresses, but this black and white frock is truly stylish and sexy:

Fallen leaves

Although it was meant to be a short wedding dress, I think it would also work as a cute frock for any fancy occasion. My favourite part is the appliquéd leaves on the tulle dress (naturally).

A hot date dress

Oh wow, do I ever love the top of this dress! I especially adore the crepe detailing of the bust and while I think shiny fabrics only work on perfectly flat stomachs, the silk charmeuse is a nice contrast. The original version is floor length with a train, but if I were to get it I would want it to be tea length.

A dress for the season

Going to a garden party and need a dress? This tiered lace confection is oh so darling:

It reminds me a little of a tiered eyelet dress my mom once promised to make me when I was a kid but it never materialized.
