After a long walk down Robson St., I took a quick peek into Bebe. And, right there was the dress! It was like a light was shining on it and the voice of Josh Groban was belting out “Alleluia!”?!?! What!?!? Anyway, the dress fit perfectly. I didn’t wear the belt shown in the picture. I did however pair my black strapless dress with red peek-a-boos and black clutch. Would you believe there were over 1000 people at this party? 1,890 people – to be exact. I spotted quite a few recycled bridesmaids’ dresses. Not that it’s bad… I mean, I was going to do the same thing too. It’s just the shopoholic in me that can’t allow me to wear the same dress twice. So sad, I know. And, with regard to my purple dress post, I was right! Almost everyone had worn a purple cocktail dress. Another popular look was the leopard print. With Robert Cavalli’s recent H&M release, it’s no wonder so many woman showed off their wild side with the animal patterns. All in all, I was happy with my choice and the party was real fun.

This dress is fantastic! I hope it made you feel like the belle of the ball. I have a couple fun holiday events coming up but unfortunately none of them require me to wear pretty dresses and as a result I’m not going to, because then my friends yell at me for dressing up while they are in their everyday clothes.
Hi, I am looking for a dress this season, and I LOVE the BeBe black dress, however, i can’t find it. I know this is from 07, any suggestions where I could find it or something similar? Thanks!
Brown’s Fashion has a similar dress however it is quite pricey:
Black strapless bustier dress. Satin corseted bust. A velvet panel defines the high waist. A zip fastening runs down the back. The pleat front pencil skirt falls to the knee. Effortlessly chic this Valli strapless dress is perfect for cocktails with statement heels and a clutch. $2,735 brownsfashion.com
There is also the Black Strapless Fitted Pleat Bust Dress in all black which costs about $400. You would have to check your local BCBG store or search online. The bust is slightly different than the dress I wore however the fit is the same.
