El-Buy: Cheers to Being Invited!

I couldn’t write last night. Not for lack of subjects (trust me, there are some gems coming your way next week), but because I was too wrapped up in the finale of the Real Housewives of D.C. Sneaking into the White House? I had to watch.

I was glued to my TV and may or may not have tweeted questions and comments to Andy Cohen during Watch What Happens Live. Bonnie and Clyde have nothing on  Team Salahi. All I could do was online browse and watch a tornado of televised social climbing.

But I digress.

This weekend I am going to wedding (no RHODC style party crashing on the agenda). So yesterday’s online browsing session was tailored to Fall cocktail attire. I love dressing up for a celebration with friends (especially when it involves a blushing bride and some bubbly)!

Here is a round up of my favorite Autumn After 5 contemporary dresses. Each dress would be perfect for a Fall wedding and could transition into the Holiday season for parties, festive family gatherings, or New Year’s Eve. So spring for a winner now instead of waiting for the snowy weather.
