The Perfect Sheath

For the past couple of years, I have been searching high and low for one and finally the fashion gods have provided it to me.  You'd think with all the options out there, it would have been easy.  But it felt more like searching for the holy grail - a search I thought may never have been completed.
I have sort of an athletic frame, which can make fitting clothes a bit tricky sometimes.  In most cases I found that either the darts weren't in the right place and I would look like a box, the shoulders were too wide resulting in a line backer look, there were details like open backs or neon zippers that don't fly at the office, or it was at a price I couldn't justify paying.

Alas, I have finally found the perfect black sheath dress! Plain black, darts in the right places, hidden zipper AND best of all - it was $40!

A void in my life has now been filled.

Check out this article from realsimple.com that talks about finding the perfect sheath dress for every body shape.


H&M sheath dress, faux pearl necklace (similar here), Louboutin peep toe flats (in a different pattern here, also love these).
