Did you guys catch last night’s episode of Fashion Star? What did you think? Any favorites?

This dress by Kara Laricks was one of mine! Kara went totally out of her comfort zone and created this beautiful, flowy dress that was bought by Saks. The silhouette is just beautiful and the layers are very forgiving, making this perfect for every body type. This would be my go-to black dress for formal events. You can change up the accessories and shoes to give it a new look every time!

* Adjustable spaghetti straps
* V neckline
* Tiered from bust to hem
* Center back zipper
* About 55″ from shoulder to hem
* Polyester
* Dry clean
* Imported

Sizes 0 – 10

This is on sale for $375 only at Saks!

Luciana Scarabello has sold her dresses to Saks two weeks in a row on Fashion Star! I’m not sure exactly how I would describe her “style”, but I have liked the last two designs she has put out there. Here they are – and they are for sale at Saks.com and in Saks stores!

I’m not huge on trends because I hate dropping a lot of money on an item, only to have it go out of style the next year. So I have to admit that I wasn’t a big fan of the high-low skirt trend at first, but it’s starting to grow on me now. This Cynthia Rowley dress has made the trend look so elegant! And the high-to-low difference isn’t huge, which makes me think this dress will be wearable even when the high-low-skirt trend is out of style (then again maybe it’s here to stay!)

Here are some more details for this dress:

* Surplice V-neck
* Sleeveless
* Pleated skirt
* Dual seam pockets
* Side zip closure
* Extended back hem
* About 43″ from shoulder to longest point
* 80% silk/20% linen
* Dry clean
* Imported

Sizes: 0 – 10

Original price: $495
Sale price: $247

Here’s a bright little MBMJ dress to brighten up your day! Or at least brighten up your computer screen. It doesn’t get much prettier than a silk dress with a bow at the waist! If you’re not feeling the bright pink, check out the steel grey – it’s just as pretty and a tad more subtle.

* Scoop neck.
* Gathered elastic waist.
* Removable self-belt.
* 2.5″ straps.
* 44″ long, measured from shoulder.
* Fabrication: Woven silk.
* 100% silk.
* Dry clean.
* Imported.

I wish some generous person out there would lend me $600 for this dress. I mean, it’s 70% off…? No takers? Ok, fine. But if I can’t have it, then I want one of YOU to have it! Because c’mon, it’s just an amazing, unique dress! If I owned this I’d totally be tempted to lie to people and say I made it. With my own two hands. “Oh yeah, the beadwork? Took me three years to do that. I made the BEADS by hand too.” (Note: I would never ACTUALLY take credit for someone else’s work. I’m being crazy and dramatic in order to demonstrate how much I am loving this dress. I’m not really a crazy liar, promise.)

And now that I’ve revealed myself as a psycho, let me give you the details…
