Before heading out to a splashy charity gala last Saturday night, some friends and I gathered to primp ensemble. We each came armed with various dress options, and by far the most compelling options all happened to be from UK-based designer Self Portrait. I've sung this brand's praises before, but my infatuation has intensified, due to its current line-up of fancy party-ready (and nicely priced!) pieces, including this pleated minidress, this red lace frock (my newest addition), this guipure lace dress, this white mesh midi and the paneled dress, above.
