I know, I know – you’re probably thinking, “Another black dress, how boring can this girl be?!” But just hear me out for a minute. This black tank dress by Vivienne Westwood is not your average LBD though. It’s more on the casual side, which will allow you to wear it as often as you want. The material is that naturally wrinkled type, so this will be the one piece you can get away with leaving on the floor for a day or two! (Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing). The square neckline has some ruffles, as do the patch pockets at the hips.

Here are the rest of the details:

Drawstring tie at the center neckline
V-back with ruffled edging
Zipper closure at back
Elasticized waist
100% Polyester
Hand wash cold
Made in Italy

Sizes: 4 – 8

Originally $902, this dress is now on sale for $394. Free shipping with Zappos.com!

This dress from See by Chloe is such a cool mixture of casual and not-so-casual! Check it out… not-so-casual is kinda obvious (I think) because it’s a dress and dresses are usually kind of dressy! Then there’s the shiny satin material that is so silky smooth you won’t be able to stop touching it. Casual elements include the front zippered pockets, slouchy fit, and some cool grommet details at the neckline. Pair this with some leggings and flats and you’ve got casual in a snap. Pull out your heels and some stockings and you’re ready to go out and party. Gotta love the versatility on this one!

This Calvin Klein dress is a little Victoria Beckham meets Audry Hepburn. Maybe my eyes are being tricked into thinking that because this model is super skinny and has brown hair? Or maybe I have been watching too much American Idol with Victoria Beckham as guest judge? Whatever the reason, there’s no denying that this is a stylish dress! The silk gives the midnight blue a tiny bit of sheen. I love how the slanted pockets kinda come out of the ruching at the waist. Elbow length sleeves really make this dress stand out, especially since it’s difficult to find anything that’s not strapless or sleeveless lately!

There are many things I love about this DSquared2 dress. There’s the simple silhouette, the flattering empire waist, the deep-without-being-overly-revealing v-neck, or the padded puffy cap sleeves. Just don’t make me pick one favorite ’cause I won’t be able to choose! Oh, and I’m digging the fact that it’s dark brown instead of the usual black. Not that it’s all that different of a color, but still. Change is good, even if it’s so slight a change that no one will notice unless they’re standing next to you. In the direct sunlight. Whatevs, that just gives you the freedom to wear black shoes with this brown dress! I swear no one will notice.

Aaaand for the details.

(I’m hoping that’s good news for some of you though!) The good news is that this lovely lavendar Jasmine di Milo dress is 50% off! (Plus some, if you use the discount code).

I love the neckline. I love the gathered waistband. I love the back, or rather, the lack thereof. I love the color. I love this dress!!! Thank you, Jasmine di Milo, for creating such a beauty. And thank you, Luisaviaroma.com for marking it way, way down. And thank you, extratenpercentoffuntilfebruarythird, for… well, your extra 10% off.

When all my ranting is said and the coupon code entering is done, the total price is $382.32. That is like pennies when you consider how amazing a dress you are getting. Ok, maybe I exaggerate. Then again, maybe not…

(By the way, did I mention you won’t pay for shipping? Or tax? Or import fees because this dress is coming straight from Italy?)

Ok, Luisaviaroma.com just marked down a few more things AND have an extra 10% off (use code FR1001A at checkout), but only til February 3rd! So I’m about to post a lot of goodies from their site cause I’m loving some of the clothing that has been marked down today! My apologies for the potential upcoming-Luisaviaroma.com-overload.

This Viktor & Rolf dress might look familiar. If not, scroll down three posts and you’ll see a striking resemblance! Yes, this is the strapless version of that cap sleeve faux pleat dress! Normally I wouldn’t post this because I’m being a bit repetitive, but after seeing this strapless version, I fell in love even more! It’s a little dressier, a little more sophisticated, and a little more subtle than the cap sleeved dress, but it’s still got all the great faux pleat details. And it’s totally on sale!!! See below for more details.

* Straight across strapless neckline
* Faux diagonal pleats on bust
* Built-in bustier lined in Tulle
* Side zip closure
* Thin waistband
* Faux pleats on pencil skirt with back slit
* Knee length
* 56% Polyester, 44% Silk

With the 10% discount (code FR1001A), the total comes to $1053. Remember all taxes, import fees, and shipping are included in that price, so that is your true total price!

The details on this Viktor & Rolf dress are too cool for school. I can’t imagine how much time it must have taken to construct and sew this thing! Everything that looks like it’s pleated is actually just material pieced together to make it LOOK like pleats. Everything from the cap sleeves to the waistband to the rounded neckline! This gives the dress a totally unique look. It also happens to make anyone and everyone really thin because the faux pleats draw the eye to the waist! Ahhh, this dress is now one of my faves!

Here are some more details!

Jewel neckline
Rounded cap sleeves
Faux tapered pleats on front in tuxedo Wool
Faux pleated waistband
Back zip closure
Pencil skirt with back slit

I couldn’t get enough of that last Brian Reyes dress, so I’ve got another one of his works of art for you today. It’s a similar style – strapless with a curvy sweetheart neckline, but it’s a more subtle, smooth look. It features asymmetrical layers at the skirt, with a seamed bodice. Best part is you can wear any shoes you want with this dress. Seriously… boots, crazy colored heels, flats, ankle boots, or just a regular old pair of black pumps (if you wanna play it boring… (I mean safe)). Think of what you could do with the accessories too – endless possibilities!

I think Brian Reyes has won me over. It doesn’t get much better than the stuff he turns out!

This one is for the girly girls out there. This Derercuny dress is so romantic I can hardly stand it (I mean that in a good way). Luxurious-feels-so-good satin? Check. Ruffled A-line skirt? Check. Deep V-neck contrasted by gorgeous details in the back? Check. It’s confirmed, this one is all elegance and prettiness. Oh, and I forgot to mention that the deep red is absolutely gorgeous!

If there was a Spider Woman (you know… instead of Spider Man) and she wore a dress, this is totally what she would wear. The top stitching (which is just what it sounds like: stitching on top of the dress!) is sewn into every inch of this Brian Reyes dress, creating something of an optical illusion. That is, the kind of optical illusion that makes you look great!

Here are a few details:

I’m totally convinced that this Donna Karan dress will look good on anyone. The stretchy (not to mention insanely comfortable!) jersey material makes it easy for this one to fit and flatter every body type. The cowl neck is my favorite part of this dress. It just drapes and falls around the neckline in an effortless way. The self-belt ties at the waist and gives the dress a great hourglass shape. Finally, the assymetrical seam and hem work together to make you look even skinnier! Who doesn’t love that?! So I rest my case: this dress will look good on anyone!

Small & Medium

The original price was $1418, but it’s on sale at Yoox.com now for $570!

LOVE this little black dress by Valentino. (I love the price, too, but we’ll get to that later).

This skirt is gathered into a wide empire waistband, and is perfectly draped into a slightly tulip-shaped skirt. The top is sheer around the neck and shoulders, and the sleeves are rolled to the tip of the shoulder. Personally, I think the best part about this dress is that it has two pockets at the hips! I’m such a sucker for pockets.

Ok, I admit it, I’m in denial when it comes to winter. I desperately wish it was summer and that I could wear clothes like these once again! Instead I have to resort to shopping for clothes like these. Almost as good, minus the warm weather.

This fuchsia tank dress by Thakoon is the epitome of summery goodness. So lightweight, and comfortable looking – you can’t possibly go wrong here! The elastic waist gives it some shape, and the draped pockets at the hips are super cute.

This Dolce & Gabbana dress was too good for me to pass up. Warning: one look at this dress may make you fall in love with it but beware it is only available in Italy size 40 (US size 6). That being said…

Just look at this. It’s a dress that would look good on any figure – in fact I think it would look even better on a normal sized person than it does on this negative-sized model! The built in bustier overlaid with tulle hugs you on top, while the slightly tulip-shaped skirt with an overlay of floral lace gives a perfect amount of texture and fullness. The satin waistband ties everything together and completes the look. There are two slit pockets at the hips so you’ll never have one of those awkward moments where you don’t know what to do with your hands. This is a Dolce & Gabbana masterpiece. I just can’t believe it’s 70 percent off right now. The original price was $4401, but it is marked down to $1320.30 at Luisaviaroma.com. As usual, import fees, tax, and shipping is all included in that price. What an amazing deal for an even more amazing dress!

Every woman needs a red dress for some occasion or another. This one from Valentino has it all: ruffles and ruching at the bust, a rounded square neckline, an empire waist and fitted shape. The 3/4 length sleeves make it a perfect choice for a fall or winter event. Best of all, it is marked way down from $990 to $395. Oh, and it’s available in a ton of sizes, too.

This Paola Frani dress might be one of my favorite party dresses this season! It will be completely flattering on any and every figure because of the way it is drawn in at the waist. The rich, dark grey color is so pretty for the winter season. The sequined neckline is amazing too, and will make your arms and shoulders look fabulous. Add a shrug and heels and you’re ready to party!
