Hello everyone! I have a wonderful navy A-line dress to share with y’all today. Recently, I attended a dinner where my husband was recognized for being a 25 year employee at his company. The occasion called for dressier attire, so I started searching for a dress to wear to the event.
After what seemed like trying on several hundred dresses, I picked out this pretty navy A-line dress with cute flutter sleeves. I was originally going to wear a sleeveless dress but so glad I didn’t! It was cold and rainy that night.
Please excuse my ghostly legs in these pictures. Haha! The sun was streaming in brightly through the window illuminating them.
I love the lace cutout detail on the sleeves and hem of this dress. I could not link this exact design, but this dress in the same brand is the same style except for the sleeve detail.
Plus, it comes not only in this great navy color but also black and this gorgeous purple!

I think this dress is super flattering! I love that it’s roomy in the waist – great for eating a big dinner! Yet, it gives a short waist some definition! I’m wearing this dress in a petite size, but it comes in regular and plus sizes too.
If you are needing a new dress for any upcoming events, I linked some other Jessica Howard dresses below. I also tried on this Calvin Klein dress and really liked the skirt detail on it. Jessica Howard has a similar dress design too.
I just carried an older black clutch and wore older strappy sandals (here is another sandal option) that I bought for another more formal affair. Since I don’t dress up like this often, I like to keep a couple of pairs of classic strappy sandals and a nice go with everything black clutch in the back of my closet.
