At only $98, this is just the perfect pretty dress. Wear it with bare legs or a shimmery pair of iridescent tights.

For a bit of that bad girl mix, you could do a sheer black pair of hose, too. End it all with a gold open toe sandal. Making it into a transition dress, add a wooly oversized cardigan and a pair of opaque tights and you’re good to go!
