Look of the Day: Topped with a Bow

Erica, UF Telecommunications Senior

Erica looked cute enough to gift-wrap in this silk mini dress on her way downtown. The detailed threading runs vertically to elongate and accentuate her shape and adds special interest to the piece. Erica’s matching bow cinches in at the waist, creating the perfect silhouette--but if your dress doesn’t come with one a skinny belt will do the trick. Throw on a pair of metallic heels to glam up for nighttime like Erica did, and don’t forget: a handful of bangles is a great way to accessorize without going overboard.
