Christina Ricci gives us a lesson on how to be subtly sexy at the the opening of Barneys at The Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino. Her navy silk dress would be conservative if it weren't for that plunging keyhole neck and gold medallion necklace. The rest is simple and sleek, so I threw in a couple items to help complete the look. Does anyone else wish we saw more of Ms. Ricci?! Especially if she's looking this good?
LBD. LBD. LBD. I'm just as guilty as the next girl of owning at least ten. The LBD is indeed a fail-safe fashion choice, but what about when you want to mix it up just a tad? Kerry Washington proves that a Luella LND can capture attention just as much as its noir cousin.
The key to standing out in navy is to play with textures. In a flat silk, navy can look very, well, flat. Navy is regal and stunning in satin, fluid jersey, or flirty pleats. The best part? You can have a field day with accessories — especially costume jewelry. And yes: you can wear black shoes with a navy dress! Just pull it together with the rest of your accessories, a moody coat or a smoky eye.
