Zaara's Closet

For a truly head turning, red carpet look no further than Luna Luna Copenhagen. In fact, at this year’s Christmas party if you want pizzaz without going over the top, put her in the Luna Luna Copenhagen Grey Gardens Tulip Dress (down from US$100 to US$77 for sizes 2, 3, 5, and 8 in Britchin Post). A crinkled pink body, golden underhem, bow tie in the back, and a lovely flower on one side makes this dress perfect for a very special occasion.  Pair with the lovely bronze ballerina flats by Pazito (get it at US$68 from Little Luna Blue ).

Absolutely adorable and totally unforgettable the Halabaloo Fuscia Ruffle Dress. Amazing color: check! Simple cut: check! Extraordinary details: check! I love their unique use of ruffled ribbons and this one has them going from top to bottom and in lovely contrasting colors too. This is a typical Halabaloo signature look. US$60 for size 2t and 3T (US$68 for size 7) at Little Luna Blue. Pair with baby pink tights and these no nonsense black Primigi mary janes (US$64 at Little Luna Blue).

Behold! Another winner from Biscotti! The Florentine Gold Dress  (marked down from US$88 to US$84 at Cameo Baby; size 5-16). The deep burgundy color is very inviting at this time of year, and the cute bubble hem more than makes up for the velvet bolero.  We LOVE! Pair with the gorgeous KS Juniper flat  (US$ 44.95 at Nordstrom) or Pazito ballerina flats (US$68 at Little Luna Blue) for a sweet and sophisticated  look.
