Argh. I am not a fan of dress codes especially the popular business casual. What does that even mean? What I do know is that I need a look for an upcoming event that is sleek, professional, comfortable, and that will transition from day sessions to an evening reception. With such an extensive list of needs, the only conclusion could be I need something new, right?
After scouting a few looks, a JAX Sleeveless Printed Jacquard Dress stood out to me as it satisfied all the requirements. But, before making a special purchase just for this event, I decided to explore options in my wardrobe first. I found this classic sheath dress with updated features like puff sleeves, and a buttoned down front. Could it be versatile enough for this event? I think so.

P.S. I might still get that JAX dress in the near future though 🙂
I like it…looks better belted.
I’m also a rebel with business dress codes, but not much of social dress codes.
I think you’ll look terrific!!!!
Going to check th other dress….
xoxo
cool i’ve added you!xx
Luuuurve that dress! I really like the Tahari brand.
cute dress………
Love this dress a lot, especially with the belt. I need to find something like that. Excellent buy!
Again…Lurve this dress and the way you’ve styled it. I think it will work very well as a transitional outfit. The other dress is very you as well. If and when you decide to get it, I can’t wait to see how you “Psyche it up”. ;O)
Totally love the shoes. I’ve just had to have a funeral for my t-strap peep toes…oh thanks for posting.
Oh, and the dress is cute belted.
*off to Marshalls.
This is one of your pieces I envy. You are such a smart shopper and brilliant dresser.
The addition of the belt takes this dress out of the everyday realm. Nicely done. I remember this one from an earlier post.
I like the JAX dress: it’s a classic you can use forever. Perfect silhouette for your shape, too.
This is a cool dress. The print is eye catching as well. The belt also is a nice addition to the entire look.
yep..definatley does the trick
I love the prints 🙂
Your dress is beautiful, styled with the belt it can go from workday to evening. It looks really good on you!
you are fabuloous and the belt really fits great the outfit!
a kiss!!!
oh, i definitely think that works. as i like it belted and think that it looks great unbelted as well…sweet and innocent 😀
cute shoes, too.
Such a lovely dress! I really need to get some great work-appropriate dresses because I hate the boring uniform look.
Perfect…I wish I still had the need for an outfit that would take me from day-to-night.
