In a Pinch for a Party Dress?
If you’re like me and wait until the last minute to find something in your closet (which is what I did this past weekend), you can have few of these options at your door tomorrow or at least in the next few days. If you’re buying it online, order it in more than one size to be safe!
NEED IT TOMORROW!!!
Young Fabulous
What is it about Nicole Miller?! Her ruching is designed to flatter any figure–I’m always surprised by how much better they look on, than hanging on the rack. Her slimming Metallic Sheath Dress is crafted in metallic knit, fits beautifully and feels great on. Plus it can be hanging in your closet tomorrow if you order it now from Zappos. $375 http://www.zappos.com/nicole-miller
Want something a little edgier? Try Victoria Pantsuit by Young, Fabulous and Broke. I’m a big Katherine Hepburn fan and therefore, I love pants. This pant suit is sexy and comfortable. I love the tapered leg and dolman sleeves: just the right amount of flare and fit. You could dress this up or down, wear it in the summer with flat sandals and in the winter with heels and a wrap. $198 at Zappos. http://www.zappos.com
Adrianna Papell
Looking for timeless beauty and grace? Here’s your dress: Adrianna Papell is it. The satin fit-and-flare dress features inverted pleats along the tea length skirt with a bateau neckline. This is a holiday party dress if there ever was one. $160 at Zappos http://www.zappos.com/
