Dressing Up the Dog Days

Magazines and storefronts almost had us convinced that Summer was over. An afternoon stroll was all the reminding we needed that there's at least a month of oppressive heat left to go!

Don't let the weather force you into dishevelment - dress up the dog days with these perfect picks:

'60s Marimekko zippered tent dress

This bright and airy Marimekko tent dress is such a Summer staple. With its zip-down front and free shape, you can throw it on over a bikini or dress it up with heels. The oversized round pockets are perfect for stashing your cell & sunglasses (now you can ditch the cumbersome tote). Labeled a 36 but will fit a contemporary 0-4.

Vibrant Victor Costa '80s striped strapless dress

We're always suckers for a candy stripe and this cute-as-a-button Costa is no exception. The sexy boned bodice and full flirtatious skirt are the perfect counterbalance to the sweetness of stripes and ruffles.
100% cotton, has both Costa and Neiman Marcus labels, a contemporary sz. 4. Excellent condition.
