Hot and Unbalanced

And I'm not just talking about myself! Today, we're looking at one shoulder maxi dresses; I love maxis, and we looked at some maxi skirts last week, but today we're taking the maxi dress and cutting off a shoulder.

Willow & Clay, Zig Zag Belted Maxi Dress, $84

This flirty and fun maxi is perfect for day or night with the appropriate shoes.

Hive & Honey, Maxi Shirred Dress, $49

This also comes in navy. I think either color is the perfect neutral canvas to add some big and colorful jewelry.

Tinley Road, One Shoulder Maxi, $29

This is a little bridesmaid worthy, but also lovely for an outdoor dressy wedding.

KAS New York, Sue Bead-Neck Maxi, $98

Want to feel like a Grecian goddess? Throw this on and be ready to turn heads.

I love the idea of a dramatic neckline created by a one shoulder dress. These beauties really are a tall glass of water.

Be fabulous today!

One Shoulder and Fabulous

Today let's go out.  I mean putting on your heels and going out for the night.  Glam.  Fabulous.  I'm thinking one shoulder.  Let's see what we can find.

Piperlime, Tinley road silver one shoulder, $28

No seriously, this dress is under $30.  Just don't even think. Put it in your cart.

Asos, Liquorish, $60

I love the pleating on this skirt and the cinched waist.  The color is fabulous.

Nordstrom, Glint one shoulder faille dress, $93

I really like the little bow belt.  This could also work for a summer wedding.

Bluefly, Wyatt, $76

You don't often see a print on a one shoulder dress. I really like the subtle class of this one.

One shoulder dresses are so great for summer because they add a detail of surprise other then a color or pattern.

Be fabulous today!

One Shoulder It!

Today is one dreary day in DC. Can I get an AMEN on that please? It's cold, it's kind of raining but not really and the sun has yet to make an appearance. Let's try to get out of this Monday funk by looking at some party dresses.

One trend that I'm warming up to is the one shoulder dress. Mostly seen on little black dresses, this style has translated across the spectrum from casual to black tie. It adds a bit of unexpected to a dress while still covering (well at least one) shoulder. Sometimes a little bit 'rocker' but it can also be made into sweet. Let's look at some options:

Bloomingdales, Aqua Draped Jersey Dress, $78

LOVE the tights with this and the navy is heavenly

Delia's, Alexis one-shoulder dress, $44.50

loving the effortlessness of this one

Macy's, Temped Dress, $38

Casual AND colorful...not to mention the price!

Tahari, one shoulder polka dot with bow, $83.99

I could not be more in love with this dress.
