I'm totally in love with the Allie softie pumps. I love how versatile and stylish these shoes are. And at 30% off these gorgeous shoes are only $131.60, a steal! With a $100 gift card, only $31.60. Mind = blown! A price like that seems like it should be illegal. But seriously, something beautiful and high quality at an amazing price? Nothing feels and looks better than that. This just proves how amazing Shopbop is, the best products at amazing prices and amazing sales to top it all off. I've ordered from them more times than I can count and they NEVER disappoint. These beauties are also proof that Frye isn't just about good looking, quality boots... they're about good looking, quality products in general. How would I style these? I think the question is, how wouldn't I style these? They'd look absolutely stunning with a pair of black nylons, and a simple a-line or baby doll dress (from Shopbop of course). However, I'm thoroughly convinced that I could wear a paper bag for a dress and it would still look good when paired with these shoes. But I think it goes without saying that the best outfit inspiration comes here on Couture Carrie.Thank you so much for the chance to win- love shopbop, love Frye, love YOU!

CC, I love this post. Heavy emphasis on love ;)
Asymmetry done so well? Fab choices and I would wear each and every look. Perfection. Inspired now to find me a mini-me of one (any) of these dresses.
Have a fab Friday, gorgeous
This is very stylish at the moment. I like the violet, shiny one with the flared skirt the most. I hope that makes sense, the one I'm talking about.
Annalene,
Congratulations&Celebrations. Party?
And regarding the post I would like to say: I am confused.
Why?
Because:
Whether dresses are beautiful or the models?
Or,
A dress makes a person beautiful?
Or,
A beautiful person carries a dress beautifully?
oh that donna karan! great post carrie!
I can never make up my mind regarding asymmetrical styles... I just gave away a bunch of one-shoulder tops to goodwill - hopefully they will find a home with someone who'll wear them more often than I did. I am always up for admiring them on other people, though! xoxox
I am so in love with these dresses. I just want to reach into the computer and grab them all! Yes, right off the models. LOL! ;)
That Donna Karan is delicious.
I really hope this style sticks around for a while. I think it looks so classic.
I never imagined that there were so many ways to artfully drape a one-shouldered dress!
All of these are gorgeous! They are works of art :
especially love the powder blue mini dress...im definitely thinking an asymmetrical black lace dress with one long lace arm for new years...
Congratulations Annalene!
Loving the Donna Karan. That nude hue is so diverse, and perfect for making one look taller. Stunning selections, CC! :)
great pics- one shoulder dresses are great and elegant! tube dresses never fit me/always falls! haha
Now I missing one beautiful top I had like that clothes!!
Anyway, I love the blue dress! :)

I adore all of these one-shoulder numbers! I especially like that pale yellow dress. So pretty!
I've never worn the one shoulder, but totally dig it!
Such a fan of the one-shoulder look too! I love the goddess quality to the style. I also adore all the orange in there... adds modern flare to the classic style doesn't it? My very fave is the Halston orange!

Hello, girl. I love the asymmetric dress although I have never had one. And do you know why? I don´t know which bra to wear. Seriously. All those shapes that are not the conventional drive me crazy for thar reason.
