The Black Slip Dress

This season, my number one goal is to find the perfect little black slip dress. WIth all the black and plain pieces I own, I don't have a slip dress that I am utterly in love with. I've tried many in the past, trust me, but nothing has really won me over. Maybe I'm just too picky... That and the fact that the ones I usually love are above and beyond my budget. I know we have some friends & family sales coming up (I believe they usually hit mid-end of March), so I'm doing my research early this year! A few of my favorites are below, and although not all of them are technically "slip" dresses, I'm in love with every single one.

Liv Dress // Milly Dress // Free People Slip // J.Crew Dress

That Milly dress is just gorgeous. I love the cinched waist and strappy back. It comes in an incredible blue and green color too. Although I'm not usually into bright colors, I'm really leaning towards the green one this time. Two of the dresses above are under $100, and I'm loving both. The Liv dress is so pretty and unique! Revolve always has some hidden gems on their site.

Anine Bing Dress // Alice + Olivia Dress // DVF Dress // Madewell Dress

One thing I've noticed about a lot of the black dresses this season, is all the lace that has been included in many of the styles. I LOVE a little lace trim on the bottom hem or neckline - just adds the perfect amount of sexy to the dress. This one by Aritzia is a favorite of mine, and it's even under $100! A big splurge piece would be this beauty by Givenchy. There are just no words. Alice + Olivia always has some great slip dress options too. Their Fierra dress has been around for years now. It's obviously a popular one since they keep bringing it back. Cami NYC, who makes my favorite silk cami, just launched their dress version, and I am in LOVE with it! 

My number one pick, if I could have any of the slip dresses, no budget restrictions, would be a Nili Lotan (also here). They're popular and sell out fast, so they're pretty darn hard to find. I've always loved their dresses. They're simple, chic, sexy, and fit amazingly. They are the absolute perfect slip dress in my opinion. Some more of my favorites are below!

NYE Style Guide

Carmella Dress // Alexis Bittar Earrings // Marie Turnor Clutch // Jessica Simpson Pumps // Nars Lip Gloss // EF Collection Ring

This whole outfit is to DIE for (in my opinion). And I'll let you in on a little secret... the dress and shoes are exactly what I'm planning on wearing tomorrow for the big night. I love a light colored piece in the winter. It's something that will stand out beautifully in a sea of black and dark colors tomorrow. Plus, the low cut of this dress is just so sexy. Cream and gold are a favorite combo of mine, especially for a fancier occasion. They compliment each other just perfectly.

Diane Von Furstenberg Dress // Marc by Marc Jacobs Pumps // Loren Hope Earrings // Bite Beauty Lipstick // Saint Laurent Monogramme Crossbody

Oh the classic LBD. This is actually my back up dress for tomorrow - I've owned this for a couple years now. It's a classic that DVF keeps bringing back year after year. Black + lace are the most elegant combination ever created I think. You could pair this with pretty much anything - black, red, gold or sparkly heels and gorgeous earrings or no earrings at all. The dress is so beautiful it really speaks for itself. A bright red lip would really finish off the outfit though.

Parker NY Dress // Stuart Weitzman Sandals // Kate Spade Stud Earrings // Lauren Merkin Clutch // BaubleBar Ring // Sephora Collection Eyeshadow Palette

This one's for the bold and confident - someone who wants to sparkle and stand out. NYE calls for a little sparkle. It's the one occasion you can wear as much shine and sequins as your heart desires! I've tried this dress on before and it drapes beautifully because of the weight. It's quite gorgeous on, and very flattering. The great thing about this dress is that it requires little to no accessories. The most I would wear with this would be stud earrings and a delicate ring or two... if that. 

Shop some more of my NYE picks below - but you better overnight ship! One day left until the big night... Hope it's a great one for all of you! xo

CAMI NYC

Cami NYC "The Sweetheart" Silk Cami // Citizens of Humanity Racer Skinny Jeans (also here) // Diane Von Furstenberg Opal Wedges (also here) // Julie Vos Monogram Bangle

My new favorite cami company, Cami NYC, makes the most amazing lace trimmed tanks. This style is my absolute favorite, but I also own "The Racer" in white, which you'll be seeing in an upcoming post. Mine ran a bit tight in the bust, so I sized up (just an FYI), so keep that in mind if you plan on ordering one. They have numerous styles, and somewhat frequent sales, so they're definitely worth checking out!
