The little black dress should be a staple in EVERY chic lady's wardrobe--along with a good pair of pumps and a nice coat, but that's another post entirely. As we gear up for the the holidays ('tis the season to attend a ridiculous amount of cocktail parties) finding the perfect party dress is key. Personally, I'm not comfortable unless I stand out, which is why I'm in love with this slightly alternative to the classic LBD by Stylestalker. Unfortunately, the Christmas season simply isn't a time when I have very much extra money to be throwing around for party dresses. I spotted this awesome alternative at Karmaloop Boston, that is slightly more forgiving cut-wise and is guaranteed not to completely flatten my wallet. Yippee!
