Credit, Debit, Cash: Cocktail Dresses For Every Budget

The cocktail party that your next promotion depends on is only a few nights away and you're freaking out. This is the night to impress and you need to go all out. Think of it as an investment. Gold dress by Alberta Ferretti, Black by de la Renta, both available at Net-A-Porter

You're on the prowl for a P.H. and you you need a cocktail dress that will break necks. It's okay to spend a little more than usual here especially since these dresses keep on giving. These Bond girl worthy dresses can be found at Intermix.

You have a million invites and do not want to rely on that Herve number you spent last month's rent on for every occasion? So what's a girl to do? Go to Forever 21 of course. Now I know what you're thinking. Bad quality, too young, too bright. But really if this dress is going to last one night, there is no time for any loose threads or dry cleaning bills. Also at this price it's okay to take a risk and go for something way out of your element. These two dresses were my top picks from the new Spring line at FOREVER21. Obviously they're both very understated but yet extremely elegant and glamorous.

Must Have: M Missoni Dress

Spring IN With Rosettes

There’s something so precious and lovely about rosettes that their mere presence screams “garden party!” And while they have longtime been considered adorable summer decorum for the Babies-R-Us crowd, designers have taken the ruffled little rounds to new heights. On the runways for their Spring 2008 ready-to-wear and resort collections, Giambattista Valli and 3.1 Phillip Lim (who defined the trend last year with the ever so popular-and often sold out- tee shirt dress) featured wearable pieces with rosettes, but with a more exaggerated couture look. John Galliano accentuated voluminous dresses with rosettes. But these little flowers aren’t reserved for only dresses. Marc by Marc Jacobs sells leather flats and spiky heels with the 3-D roses, and Betsey Johnson featured an ornamented, pink chiffon headband. Although rosettes are seemingly Spring-like, the trend will certainly blossom far into the fall! Rosettes are sweet, girly and totally chic in metallic colors, patent leather, and over sized proportions.

Navy Nails

Russian Navy by OPI

L adies ditch the black and get lacquered up in this sophisticated and sleek nail polish. It goes with everything this season from the silvers to golds to the blues to the pinks. If this is just a tad bit too, risque, Per Se, why not do the upside down manicure and just paint the tips with this gorgeous hue while leaving the rest of the nail iridescent white? Tres Chic!

Sparkly Top

Egg Plant Camisole by Mint and Jodi Arnold available at www.intermixonline.com

There's a blur between day and night in fashion right now and I'm all for it. Bring out your sparkly tops for daytime and enjoy cocktails after work without racing to your apartment. To stay warm try a chunky knit sweater in camel for a casual cover-up that's delicious. xx MIMI
