Say hello to the perfect dress for fall! This Burberry Brit silk dress features a snap placket, dropped waist, and gathered trim at the shoulders.

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…

I love this bright and sunny Mark + James by Badgley Mischka dress. I’ve had enough of black and grey; it’s time for spring!
The dress is a mock wrap with a tulip-style skirt. It is all tied together at the waist with a gold belt built into the dress. The gold and orange complement each other perfectly. The breezy silk makes this the perfect dress for a warm day. Throw a blazer or light jacket on over it for a temperature drop at night.

This chiffon dress by Geren Ford looks like it’s out of a fairytale or something… it’s totally got that “maiden in distress” look going on. If there even is such a thing as a “maiden in distress look”, that is. Well, there is now, because this is it!
The lightweight chiffon makes this feel flowy and dreamy. It features a simple silhouette with a V-neck and a gathered waist. My favorite part is the miniature ropes that act as adjustable straps. Love this one from head to toe! (Or is it more like neck to ankles??)

I love the simple design of this Haute Hippie dress. It features drapey silk charmeuse with a single twisted shoulder strap ending in a perfect little knot at the center of the back. The silky, fluid material is cut on the bias, which provides a little bit of stretchiness and a ton of drapey, flowy material in the skirt! The steel gray color is a great switch from basic black. Everyone’s got a black dress, but how many people do you know with a slinky, sexy, silky, steel gray dress?!
