It’s almost the end of March, so let’s get to some of the reader questions that came in through Instagram last night. Time for Ask Me Anything.
Need a cute dress for a spring event? Something simple and easy to wear, something you can dress up or down? This is the dress for you.
As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
I’m a big fan of the sloan sheath (I saw an adorable polka dot version at BR this weekend) but I can’t justify the price tag. I’m hoping it’ll drop if I just wait long enough…

I got mine when dresses were on sale and used my friend’s BR card (she had a 40% off reward). Definitely don’t buy anything at BR full price, but this dress is so worth it.
Hi Belle,
I love the Sloan sheath! I’m actually wondering how best to style it for a cocktail event. Specifically, I’m pondering necklace or no necklace with that neckline and what to do with my hair. I would greatly appreciate any advice you could offer! Thanks!
Hi Belle, I have a similar dress, though it’s an a-line, with a built in belt just above the waist. Okay, so it’s a completely different dress, but you reminded me of it. Problem is, with my office being fairly casual, I don’t know how to style a dress like this for work when I need to be a crisp professional. Do I just have the wrong dress as a foundation piece?
Couldn’t have kept my job without your blog!

Add structure. A belt, a fitted blazer, etc. Choose pieces that have more structure to balance the shape of the dress.
