Since this dress was featured as the banner it has been creating quite the stir. It’s just as amazing on as you would imagine it to be. Made by Fumblin’ Foe out of this beautiful magenta silk, the dress is made to look as if it has just been draped on your body and tied at the hip and the shoulder. It's hem is a bit longer in the back, but the slit on the left side makes it seem shorter. Bonus: a short dress that your bum isn't going to hang out of!

It runs a bit small so we recommend going up a size when trying it on, but it’s so worth the dented ego. It’s a drop-dead gorgeous show-stopper and is, drumroll please…only $98.00. We don’t know how either! Get it before it’s gone!

Sizes Medium & Large still available

This dress is quite the show-stopper, at least in the store, and we are loving it! The details are amazing, as YFB's always are and the buttons down the front are so cute and can be unbuttoned a bit for the perfect amount of "peekage." We only have a Medium left, but don't worry! This dress can be special-ordered or can be belted for a boho-chic look.

Jenny Han Smocked Tie-Front Tube Dress in Prizm Print is gorgeous and flattering! We love Jenny Han around here and her long dresses are the perfect length for us short girls! (Jenny's short too and she understands!) She has the most amazing construction to make the silk chiffon move perfectly as you walk, shop or dance your feet off! We have all sizes available in this beauty.

We are absolutely obsessed with this color this season, and apparently you are too! This entire ensemble is from Aryn K and we love the possibilities of each piece, as well as the price! The whole outfit is under $120 together! This top features tonal pearlized buttons up the entire back and has a thin chiffon belt that can be removed. It looks great tucked in, belted, tied, or left alone and is a great compliment to dark denim. (I'm thinking the new dark Gwenevere's by 7 for All Mankind -their really skinny ankle-hitting skinny jean.)

The skirt is great with it's exposed elastic band, a trend we're seeing a lot of for Fall skirts, and knit material which makes it super comfortable! It's got a peplum wrap front but an invisible zipper in the back for easy wearability. The color is a great charcoal-almost black and skirts are the must-have item on our minds for Fall!

This is one of those dresses that makes us remember why French Connection is so wonderful. This is the perfect Fall wedding dress (if you're attending, obviously) and would look great with heels or with our favorite Zigi boots in Cognac. We just got an amazing, long cabled cardigan in from Tulle that we have hanging with it in the store that was made for this dress and Mizzou football games!

We have become quite the fans of Aryn K's two-tone dress styles lately! I think it plays on the high-waisted skirt look that so many of you are adopting as of late, but has the comfort and ease of a dress. This is perfect for you ladies who dress up for Mizzou games around here and just plain beautiful for the rest of you!

Cobalt blue, white and black are trending really well around here! Has anyone passed our window lately? We have tons of styles rolling in with this beautiful combination, but few as simple and comfortable as this tank and ponte skirt combo. We just got these JJ Winters Envelope Clutches in 5 colors and we can't decide which is our favorite! It's available in Black (shown), Navy Croc, Orange Croc, Cobalt Croc, or Cork with Gold Flecks. <-amazing!! These are the perfect size for going out becuase they're not too large but will still fit everything a lady would need for a night out and features a magnetic snap closure. Good for you girls who get a little tipsy on those patio stairs!
