I was looking through Nordstrom’s website because on Friday, July 18, they are kicking off their big Anniversary Sale which will run through August 3. What’s great about this sale is that it is actually on new fall stuff - all kinds of stuff from clothing to handbags, to shoes and jewelry. But of course, my attention was caught by an item which is not on sale but which I find irresistible. This dress by Lida Baday is sleek elegance. Pure and simple. The contrast between the wool and taffeta makes it interesting while the form-fitting silhouette makes it flattering. The “bustier” top adds a sexy note while keeping everything under wraps. It is $1,075 on pre-order.
