Match your shoes and jewelry with your dress for an endearing look or mix it up by matching them with the color of the embroidered flowers.

Channeling the class and sartorial heights of women in power, this dress shows off peplum and metallic detail with flair. We imagine this is how a woman CEO would dress on a rare evening off. The cool mint shade looks great on any skintone and the folded trim elongates the waist. The slinky length of this dress demurely shows off your curves!

Reminiscent of lace crop tops from boho music festivals, this sexy prom dress takes that summery trend to the next level.

Wear your hair long and loose, or tied half up with braids to channel your inner goddess!

Think a long sleeve dress is prudish? Think again. This lace and tulle dress is hot, hot and hot.
