Each season I'm fortunate to stumble across a dress so amazing that it becomes both my go-to piece as well as my season favorite. This is that dress. I really hesitated spending that much -- especially considering I had to go with a 4 when my usual size is a 6 -- but I got it today and when I tried it on, this dress made me feel like a total babe, but also so sophisticated, sexy, beyond pretty, and classic, yet super trendy. The cut and style is unique and the simple silver and black pattern, and the elegant, but highly wearable fabric, make this dress THE dress to have for Spring. Because it's not body-hugging, I was able to get away sizing down. My only concern are the slits that are thigh-high on both sides. I will likely take it to the tailor to have the seams closed a couple of inches, but other than that,I can't wait to wear this dress a thousand times! Silver flats, super high heels in a bright color, traditional pumps or wedges will all work beautifully. Total love!
