Darlings, the runway looks pictured are all from SS ’10, but CC believes that the sleeved minidress trend is one that spans the seasons, don’t you? Opt for a three-quarter or full-length sleeve and a daringly short hemline!

I really like these! I especially liked the Antik and Free People dresses. Well done!
Congratulations Charlene!
J'adore that Azzaro - slightly reminiscent of a blazer, yet very seductive. :)
Gorgeous new header by the way! Sasha Pivovarova = love! :)
I love this trend, especially when done in sequins!

That Trussardi dress is wonderful; that Balenciaga one on the other hand is my biggest nightmare.
Love this look- hoping to find a great sleeve mini dress for a holiday party or new years! The Alberta Ferretti one is stunning.
I adore mini dresses. The Free People black dress is my favorite here. And that sequined black dress with white collar is heavenly.
i like this look. i have a armani which i still have not a chance to wear yet.
prob my fav look right now are these dresses for fall with tights and a stylish jacket. LOVE!
McQueen McQueen I love the S/S 2010collection!
Love this look - think i'd be wearing leggings though with this cold weather!

There's a blue catwalk one which I can't tell who it's by because my computer is funny and v odd when it comes to formatting, but it's fabulous!! Sleeved minidresses are the way to go, with fun tights and a jacket/cardigan/coat, ideal for winter.
Love the lacy appliqué on that black piece! Very warm & lovely new header darling...
xo*
Everything is so cute - making me miss spring already with all these spring looks!
Of course, I'm partial to everything Lanvin, but love the Celine dress too!
Loving all these minidresses and the new header! Fab!
Congrats Charlene!
You changed your header! Gosh where have I been all weekend?! Oh well, I think its lovely.
These pictures look like the inside of my closet, I am a dress fanatic - they're so easy! Everything from sweaters to suits can come in a singly piece dress. :)
El vestido de negro de lentejuelas de Anna Sui es una de mis adquisiciones de esta temporada, y los vestidos de Azzaro son unas joyas, este verano querría uno para una boda que tengo en Sept.
Un post estupendo, como siempre.

I think LUV, darling CC!
XoXo
I love the last dress! Such a unique design!
I'm liking this trend. Long sleeved mini dresses (paired with tights) are perfect for the autumn.
I've been dying for something like this for so long! Love the sequined ones and the studded ones!
xoxox
huh!
i didn't win. better luck next time then.
these are fabulous dresses, CC.
geezz, wish i could have them.
It's a great look and choice for posting on.
I'll be picking the Celine one
These are awesome. I really love that red one. Hope you're having a great week so far. Cheers!
love the new header and great picks dear!
I love this look. So much classier and more sophisticated than showing EVERYTHING.
I love this look, especially the Lanvin, Balmain, and of course Alexander McQueen!
I love the sheer beige one with black applique (sorry I don't know the name)
Hope you're having a great day!
There are a couple of dresses that I would loove to have! the ones that accentuate the shoulders are pretty. Who was going to tell me that I was going to like that!
xoxo

Sleeved mini dresses are my thing because my legs are never cold but my arms always are!

Deffinitely a trend I like. :-)
Favourites:
Andrew Gn- not my usual colour fabric but it is gorgeous.
Christian Dior- so soft and girly.
Trussardi 1911- gosh how elegant!
Rebecca Taylor- beautiful patterned fabric.
I could really do with a nice thicker fabric dress for fall and the Far and Away and J. Crew ones look lovely.
Hope I make sense today! I'm not feeling too well..

Oh I love the sequinned peter pan collared minidress!! I'll love to have something like that:)
love the mini dress, need some new ones for the fall!
I love this look. Is there a better look for fall / early winter? I will sometimes let my summer frocks "live" a little longer by wearing them layered and with long sleeves tees and opaque tights during fall/winter. :)
I'm loving this trend!
ooh HOT HOT HOT!!! Balmain and Trussardi did it best with the short hemline and the strong shoulders.
I love this look so much. and i love your new banner!!!
these dresses remind me how much i want to do some shopping damage!
I love these - I absolutely adoreee minidresses! =) Any excuse I can get to show off the legs ;)
Balmain is master of the minidress right now!
Wow, wow, LUV everything soo much!!! Now Im really glad its summer and we finally getting warmer so I can wear dresses like these!! Have a fanatastic fashion filled day!!

Oh that rag and bone turtleneck dress would be awesome with a great pair of boots.
Not going to lie, I'm not a big minidress fan but you certainly improved my opinion of the fashion statement! Especially the Alberta Farrettii. That is a sexy lil' number for sure!
love the fur! D
why can't i wear these everyday ?????
mini dresses with long sleeves are perfect for fall. Great finds as usual :)
Never knew paisley could look so fresh and current! I like all these looks. :)
