A dress altered properly by a tailor, even at additional cost, looks far better than a dress in a perfect size that has not been touched, since formal sizing rarely fits everyone exactly the same way

The girls got to wear their dresses quite a bit in December, to the musical in the city, to their school performances and parties and to Christmas Eve mass

We LOVE flower-printed bridesmaid gowns, and this one stands out from the crowd with a gorgeous yellow and navy color palette

With its lace-up side and sultry sparkle, its the ultimate night-out uniform

Layer it over your swimsuit as a chic coverup or style it with espadrilles for a boho-inspired dinner look

You could also wear mid-calf boots or knee-high boots with this look too
