One of our favorite things about lace (among many) is that it can be found in a variety of shapes, sizes, and silhouettes. This dress offers you a classically feminine contour, like a modern-day twist on a Betty Draper version. Wear this ensemble with nude pumps, and you’ll feel like the classiest of all acts.

Move Over, Marilyn

We all know and love that famous white number worn by Marilyn Monroe. This similar dress gives you a classic taste of old school Hollywood without looking like a costume. Just beware of any Marilyn-esque wind blowing up that skirt!

Raving Over Ruffles

Ruffle details rarely go out of style, especially when they enhance an already adorable dress. This extra feminine frock can easily go from business casual with nude flats to night on the town with the quick addition of some bold and colorful jewelry.
