CollegeCandy Wishlist: ASOS Draped Dress

When you're on a budget, you can't spend your money on just anything. You need items that are versatile, timeless and just plain pretty. And this beautiful dress from ASOS is all that and more. It is short, yet it reveals just enough skin with its strapless design for hitting those clubs on Saturday night. Put on some sexy, strappy heels and you are ready to conquer the dance floor. When the party's over, work this dress in a different way. Got a holiday party coming up? Slip it on with a pair of pumps and clutch. A nice family dinner to attend? Put a blazer over the top and you'r good to go. Wanna rock it out? Add a leather jacket, tights and a pair of ankle boots. Unlike most mini dresses, this ASOS design is anything but typical. I really love the contrast created by the light drape, especially the way it crosses the bust to the waistline and then back over again on the bottom. With this dress in your closet you'll have the solution to every wardrobe dilemma. Whether it's a birthday party or a wedding, this dress is the answer!

Top 10 Fabulous Bustier Dresses That Mix Structure With Sexiness

I don't care what my credit card statement reads -- I say it's never too early to pick out the perfect New Year's Eve dress (unless you plan to really let yourself go at the dinner table this holiday season -- yikes)! What I'm really loving for the cocktail party season ahead is bustier dresses -- a little reminiscent of Madonna's "Like A Virgin" days (in a cool way, of course), yet updated with more subtle hidden boning, chiffon layers, and fun florals and lace. Bustiers juxtapose conservative structure with a snug fit that without revealing too much, yet unlike an old-fashioned corset, you can actually breathe. Blur the lines between girly and edgy with this studded belt bustier from Forever 21, or go full-on flirty with this floaty strapless sheath by Donna Morgan. Browse through the slideshow for a selection of my favorite 10 bustier dresses!

Celebrity Style Steal: Amber's Smokin' Gunmetal Get-up

Amber Heard, a budding 22-year-old actress, is going to be in the anxiously awaited Pineapple Express. This bombshell blonde made the 2008 Maxim's Hot 100, so it's no surprise that she knows how to heat it up in the fashion world. She graced the cameras at the 2008 Comic Con International Sci-Fi/Entertainment Weekly Party in a grey strapless mini-dress, and fierce suede ankle boots. I am blown away by how gorgeous different shades of grey look together! It's very gunmetal-chic. To find sweet and sassy grey pieces like Amber's, view the SLIDESHOW!
