The Little Red Dress

The red dress holds a legendary status, think Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman or Scarlett O’Hara in Gone with the Wind. Yet, many women shy away from red dresses, fearing they’ll appear gaudy or unsophisticated. Let us demonstrate how to embrace red with elegance and allure, regardless of your age, size, or body type. Red can be glamorous and sexy for everyone.

Our Top 15 Red Party Dresses

Discover our curated collection of 15 stunning red party dresses. We offer diverse styles, from luxurious satin to delicate lace. Find the perfect shade of red to flatter every skin tone and suit any season. The Oscar de la Renta red and white print dress is ideal for a summer party. Dress it up or down effortlessly. Add a denim jacket for a casual daytime look. For evening, elevate the outfit with heeled sandals and a slim belt to accentuate your waist.

We’re completely captivated by these two Valentino dresses! Yes, they’re an investment, but they’re timeless wardrobe staples. Wear them year-round, rain or shine. They’re ideal for both the office and post-work cocktails. I don’t usually favor red dresses with black tights. However, the deep red hue of these dresses would pair beautifully with black ankle boots.

You know you're going to give your kid a complex if you call them "The Mean Bean" instead of; sweetiepie, sugar face, bear, etc. My nickname stuck- even when I got nicer. AND my affinity for all things BEAN happens to be tremendous; Coffee beans (my coffee feign), Cocoa beans, Vanilla beans, chickpeas (yes, it's a bean), black beans....and so on. As for the "mean" part, depends on which ex-boyfriend you ask. I think I'm super sugary. And no, I will not be writing any guides about beans. Unless I get a special request.
