Alexis Bittar was crowned Accessories Designer of the Year in 2010 by the prestigious CFDA, and from the looks of what his collection has to offer I can say that it was well deserved. Bittar’s jewelry and accessories are so unique, with intricate details that make them truly stand out in a crowd. No wonder his collection has received such astounding popularity in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. These are a few great items from Alexis Bittar that I am excited to share with you:

Just like style icon Audrey Hepburn, who always kept it simple, Alice + Olivia are keeping their clothing lines clean and simple emphasizing a woman’s physique. Three must-have dresses that fit any occasion are the alice + olivia joey fitted peplum dress, the alice + olivia georgina fitted peplum dress, and the alice + olivia mid length rouched dress. Simplicity is the key for a look like Audrey Hepburn. Put a piece of bold jewelry, just like the twisted chain Gunmetal necklace, with any of these choices and you cant go wrong.

Store Appeal: So if there’s one thing Alice + Olivia are good for – and known for – it’s their impeccable selection of party dresses. The youthful, contemporary line represents the “quirky style” of its founder, Stacey Bendet. In addition to the dresses, the line expands into tops, pants, jackets and even basics (read: white tees with a flair) and some accessories. A kids line and a charity tee selection makes this hipster fashionista brand quite likeable.
Our Vote: With over 60 dresses on their site to choose from, it’s a virtual closet of young Hollywood. Priced well between the $200s and $500s, it’s a great online destination to find that killer cocktail dress that most likely no one else in your circle will have. But probably what’s more entertaining that sifting through the well-stocked online showroom is the “4AM Finds” which truly represents that quirky nature Stacey confesses to have. These pieces include oddball frocks and accessories from other stores like Sephora and Amazon.com that not only make it a pleasure for the online shopper, but make the brand that much more…appealing!
Our Favorites:
1.) Alice + Olivia Tabitha Dress – $198
2.) Alice + Olivia Sydney Faux Wrap Dress – $368
3.) Alice + Olivia CeliaVest – $264

Store Appeal: Looking for the perfect dress for that summertime dinner party, beach barbecue, or first date? Queue Bloomingdales! (affectionately known as “Bloomies” to beloved customers). The Bloomingdales dress department has everything, from casual and chic to sophisticated and sexy. I found a huge array of dresses to choose from, and the Bloomingdales focus on high end, designer labels really makes their selection unique and outstanding. They’ve got all my favorite brands, from quirky/playful Alice + Olivia to sexy and feminine Rebecca Taylor, as well as much much more.

I was also able to take a look at all the dresses on sale, which definitely made my wallet a little happier. There are some great bargains to be found on the website, so definitely take advantage!
