Babergh dress (Anthro 2010)

Every year the campus hosts an annual dinner to usher in the new semester. All the faculty and staff are invited and it is a great occasion for dressing up. I wanted to wear something special and something I hadn't recently worn so I pulled out my Babergh Dress from last year. It had just the right amount of sparkle mixed with an uncommonly figure-hugging silhouette. I was inspired by how I felt wearing a pencil shape the other week (blogged here). Branching out is fun! I gave and received many compliments that night. It was novel and great to see everyone wearing fancy clothes! We clean up well. I only wish I had some shots of me with my colleagues or Chris who was my very dapper date. Sadly I forgot to bring out my camera til the very end of the night after I got home.

Such a pretty outfit! You look great.
You look beautiful- I love how the dress looks like a skirt and top yet is so elegant! Very sexy and classic and I love the starfish cuff!
That dress looks so perfect on you! I love how the bag gives the dress a classy, ladylike touch without being too prim. Too bad about not having a camera. I would have loved to seen a picture of dressed up Jess and dapper Chris.
love your outfit and your accessories! that silhouette is gorgeous on you. I'm at my most comfortable in a full skirt as well but did just buy a sheath dress so we shall see how brave I am :)
ah poor dapper chris- the mens always miss out on the photography front, since the ladies look so fabulous! The whimsical shape and size of that sparkly starfish cuff is perfect for the dress!
You. Look. Gorgeous. and Profess.

I love that dress. You look great!
