Whether you have big plans for Valentine’s Day or not you still need that perfect date outfit in your closet! For me that’s usually a fit and flare dress in a fun print with a great pair of heels and some fun jewelry, but today I’m stepping out of my comfort zone with this body con dress from WalG! When I was browsing their site it was the first thing that caught my eye but I didn’t think I could pull it off. Even though I know ruching does wonders when it comes to disguising areas of your body that you aren’t that comfortable with I was still hesitant.I decided to take a chance on the dress anyway and I’m so happy I did! I still feel a little self conscious about my hips in it, but overall I really love the way it looks on me. While I may not be wearing this dress out on a date this Valentine’s Day (I’ll be spending the 14th going to #NYFW shows and dinner with friends), I think I’m going to break it out for a big Carnevale party at the end of the month!

Remember in our last #Styled6Ways post when I was talking about how it wasn’t that cold in New York so bundling it wasn’t necessary? Yeh, so I’m pretty sure I jinxed the entire state because as I’m writing this I literally hear the wind wiping the trees from inside my office and it’s about20 degrees out (but feels like 10 when you factor in the wind). Thankfully when I shot these photos it was a little warmer because going outside right now with bare legs would NOT be happening!

That dress is amazing on you! It really highlights your waist and no need to feel self-conscious – I think it makes your hips look curvy in the way that everyone desires!!!
Also, that faux fur with it – showstopping!
