Look of the Week: Day + Night for SF Cocktail Week This Weekend
One dress + six accessories = a slew of fun looks. For this weekend's SF Cocktail Week, we'll focus on just two: day and night. For more casual events like today's East Bay Showdown, or Sunday's Belvedere Bloody Mary Brunch, go for the funkier day look. For fancier soirees like tomorrow's Barbary Coast Bazaar, or Saturday's The Legend Awards, doll-up for a glitzier evening look.
While this VPL dress is inherently day, the quality and unique bra-top make it an easy piece to jazz up for a night on the town. Tip: Don't be afraid to down a few brews, ladies -- empire waists are super flattering! And since you'll be drinking, if you're going to sport heels, go for sturdy pairs with ankle straps for minimal wobbling.

From the bloomie's descrption - "this lingerie-inspired dress boasts thick bra straps and a mesh cutout at the bust to flaunt your décolletté."
Perfect for the office!
How is a lingerie dress ever really "day wear?" Not buying it, at all
