A girl should always be prepared. That was pretty much my reasoning when I found this gorgeous Jay Godfrey dress on sale this summer. I was shopping for a dress to wear at a wedding and came across this little number. Jay Godfrey makes beautiful dresses that are perfectly cut! While I felt this was a little too formal for the event I was heading to, I could not pass up on this gorgeous dress and its amazing sale price. So I bought it to save for later, just in case a formal affair popped up in my future. I love the idea of having a formal dress ready to go in my closet! I have had friends call me last minute in the past with a free ticket to an amazing downtown party or opera ball, and me left with nothing to wear and not enough time to shop. I also think this would make an amazing New Year’s Eve dress! The sweetheart cut of this dress is perfection. It hides all the right areas while enhancing others. I love mixing with this quilted leather jacket to tone down the formal look a bit for New Year’s Eve plus help keep me warm. I also think it adds a little rocker edge to the outfit. And do not even get me started on the color of this dress! AMAZING! The color was one of the top reasons I could not walk away from this dress.
