Finalize our Fits: A BCBG Bonanza!

By Cool J

A few weeks ago, I posted about a memorable Fits on the Road in Annandale, MN, where several of my friends gathered to toast our good friend Abby on her bachelorette weekend.

The bachelorette party was a blast, but the main event will be here this weekend! And, of course, this main event was an "excuse" for many of us to purchase new party dresses for the special occasion.

Four of us- Susie, Kelly, Jen, and I- have had a few emails back and forth, discussing said party dresses, and debating how best to finalize our fits.

And we need your advice! I won't tell you who is wearing which dress!  But I will ask you to comment with your tips as how to best accessorize these cute little numbers.

First of all, it's obvious that BCBG is the dress maker for cocktail dresses for women ages 27-36! We all found dresses that fit our personal style at the same store.

Dress #1: BCBG Ink and Tan Striped Spaghetti Strap Dress
This dress can also be worn strapless- a true functional fit! 

So...how to accessorize? 
Black shoes would be classic, but what about a taupe/tan? 
Jewelry: maybe some funky black statement jewelry?




Dress #2: 
This short and sassy number can be finalized lots of different ways.
A bold accent color, perhaps? Maybe red, yellow, or orange? The options are endless.
Shoes: How about silver or nude?
What do you think?
Dress #3
Blue Depth Jersey Christina Asymmetrical Dress
The funky and fun dress is a knock-out! 

It's shown below with black accessories, 
but again, the simple blue color allows for a lot of different accents. 
A burnt orange or red would be perfect for fall, 
but this versatile style could also work in the winter with silver or gold. 
Definitely a functional fit!



Dress #4
Tired Marina Cocktail Dress

With the jeweled neckline, a necklace is obviously a no-go! 
My thought is just a bracelet and earrings.  
Shoes: how about nude? A glittery silver? 
The bronze in the picture would also work.



So tell us readers, how should we finalize our fits for the big event this Saturday?

  1. Dress three is beauty in the details. Fun earrings and/or bracelets are all that's needed. Simple shoes. Let it be the statement.
