InStyle Announces the new LBD: The Little Bright Dress; and Crush loves it.

InStyle Magazine's August 2009 issue discusses the new LBD: The Little Bright Dress, and like all fashionistas recovering from this summer's glum, dreary weather, we at Crush are swooning for the sun, and anything that evokes the same feeling. Enter: The Little Bright Dress. Seen on stars from Hilary Duff to Kate Hudson to Suri Cruise, bright colored mini dresses are taking Hollywood, and Main Street (or Charles Street) by storm. In super feminine cuts with smart details and often drapey fabrics, these fun pops of color are decorating runways, hangers and fashion savvy civilians alike.
At Crush, we've been drooling over Alexia Admor all summer; the line has brought us one splended cut after another, many in a variety of colors and patterns. The kelly green has a lush feel as it rocks an elegant, but forgiving fabric and we love love love the new pink plaid (you may have seen it in floral and solid pink), it fits like a glove and will easily crawl into fall with camel boots and a chunky brown cardigan. The pleats on that piece conceal any insecurities, while the hourglass shape, adorned with a skinny belt, defines the waistline. Plus both of these pieces, like many others this season, feature pockets, the new must have detail for party dresses that causes us to beg the question: why did it take designers so long to create the need for them, and where did we ever put our hands before when flirting?
