T2B A-List: New York Strapless Dress by Kay Unger

It’s no surprise that I am, once again, featuring a dress in my T2B A-List series. It’s the brainchild of Kay Unger found at Neiman Marcus called, New York Strapless Dress.
It’s sporting that belted look that I’m currently experimenting with and not to mention the bold prints! That probably explains why I’m immediately drawn to […]
