Adorable!! Almost reminds me of a tutu!
I love poofy skirts! They make me feel like a little girl again!
Love these.
I used to figure skate for like 8 years when I was a kid and competed. It takes me back. My sister's bridesmaid's gown has that a line shape.
i love the versace number in blue. the silhouette is so fun and fresh.
That Rodarte dress is sheer perfection.
What beautiful selections, darling!
Enjoy your weekend :)

I love this silhouette! I could probably create this look with the pieces I already have, though. :)
ahh i love a skirt with a little flounce- or a lot! nothing makes you feel more girlie!
thank you so much for that! i love your blog so that compliment is really flattering--to see that you like anything that i do. :D
that yellow zac posen dress is such a dream. i need it. and i love that sass & bide dress as well. it's so fun.
There isn't one outfit I wouldn't love to wear... great post..

Ahhhh! I'm in love - I would love to wear any of those dresses. It'd be hard not to feel like a ballerina.
Adore that dress on the top left!
I love this style of dress, so flattering and feminine. The Abaeté and Niki dresses look great.
I love the Steffe dress!
they look like ballerinas... so sweet! ^^
wow! love the first and the Luisa Beccaria dress :)
...always wanted a Lacroix bubble skirt since my prom night...wayyy back then! When CC, when??? Must I wait afew more decades???
Look at the stems on these girls! The Unique Boutique prom dress is so hot and the Rodarte gown is amazing. I like the contrast in sleek bodesses and full skirts.
In love with that Rodarte. The rope! It's so unusual, earthy and organic - pure Grecian forest nymph!
these dresses are all so so gorgeous, but i am absolute in love with the abaete spring 09 dress!
These look like perfect party/dancing dresses. LOVE the Rodarte (and the Lacroix, of course!).
Ooh i love a cute dress! Tomorrow is the perfect day to get all dolled up!
Rodarte one is so lovely! take me to prom now!!!
These dresses are perfect examples of fun and feminine S/S 09 looks.
Gorgeous dresses, nothing nicer than a cute flouncy skirt!
lovely! specially the Cynthia Steffe and Zac Posen dresses.
1st of all this is one of my FAV style of dresses, i LOVE full skirts and 2nd...
HOLY CRAP i just saw the Report Signature neoprene boots on your sidebar!!! I NEED those!
OOOOOPS! I BELIEVE ALL THE BLOGGERS SHOULD SEE THIS BLOG PAGE. YOU REALLY GOT IT LOCKED. KEEP IT UP
this is my favorite shape when it comes to dresses.
I love that silhouette because it's so feminine and flirty - and flattering on so many body types, of course!
happy valentine's day, dearest CC!
xoxo,
La C.
I love basically all of these..so cute. The first picture is gorgeous too.
I love this silhouette! I just have to be very careful with all that bulk around my hips ;)
I am a complete sucker for poufy skirts. I think it might be the little girl in me. I often have to stop myself from buying skirts and dresses in this shape in fact!
But I adore the showcase, nothing wrong with drooling over images, right?
Fabulous, fabulous!
Have a lovely weekend CC :)
this is for sure one of my all time favorite posts. i love love love this silhouette!
xx

I love ice-skating ! The idea is great, and the choices are wonderful... Saunders and his ballet's dresses.... love love love LOVE !
I adore full skirts!
The Luisa Beccaria dress looks so delicate and lovely.
The Betsey Johnson and Lorick ones look so cute and perfect for daywear!
