I can’t believe we are already into November and Christmas is right around the corner! If you are like me, you wonder where does the time go? In the midst of this fast paced world, I am always in search of the perfect dress or the next unique style in fashion. One of my favorite online retailers to shop is Shoptiques. They offer boutique styles from around the world with prices that can work for any girl’s budget. My latest find is a grey, long sleeved dress with an open side, short liner and side velvet tab.

This dress creates the perfect balance to flatter your shape. The illusion of a wrap dress gives you a trimmer waist line and it offers plenty of stretch. I am wearing a large, but if you are a size 10-12 in women’s sizes, medium would fit perfectly. I wore my dress with a pair of lace-up pumps by Steve Madden and necklace from Stella & Dot. Don’t be afraid to wear what you want because you feel you don’t fit the standards of a model. Wear what you want! The key is to wear the right size and feel good about who you are.
