Above she’s showcasing the sensationally flattering Alexa dress from Elizabeth & James ($365).

Stressless Dresses
This Verace-esque dress from Clover Canyon ($235, SHOP IT NOW) is a stunner!
So easy, so interesting, so stylish – what’s there not to like?
Not wanting to detract from the Cleopatra pattern, we kept accessories simple & classic.

Bailey 44′s version of a boucle dress ($155) is another easy as 1-2-3 piece. Paired here with Kate Spade’s great Tavie boot ($490), this dress moves effortlessly from day to night.
