formal women's black off the shoulder dress YMDUCH High Split Long Party this dress provides a polished and elegant profile for any special occasion Elegant Off-Shoulder Maxi Dress -

Love the Chanel like shoe above- it has gotten rave reviews

With its chic side slit, it's a fabulous option if you want your squad to show off their shoes, and the thick band portrait neckline should flatter any bridesmaid

THE TREND: BUSINESS-CLASS BAGS THE LOCATION: PORTUGAL Style Notes: Take a look at the best-selling bags of the year (so far) and you'll notice a pattern of pared-back top-handle bags that are perfect for the boardroom

Philomena Dress, $168 There are two sides to my personality: the side that only wants to wear varying shades and layers of black, and the side that loves Edwardian lace and pointelle, and anything white or ghost-like

The fabric has rich, heavy, and dramatic properties that feel excessive at semi-formal events but completely appropriate at black-tie or winter gala settings

Thank YOu!
