Hey my boyfriend having an awards dinner for his work where I think he's going to win gold. I need a dress that is trendy and in season but also warm because I live in Canada and it's like -40 here. I'm going to have to wear tights with it and closed toe heels. I'm pretty flexible just nothing too revealing or short as I like to dress modest. I like to stick to neutral colors. I want something that's in style and I don't have a very good fashion sense I need your ladies help. If you could also give me some hair and makeup tips to go with it that will be great. Thank you so much I love you guys

okay I have a jillion dresses, hopefully you like at least one! I think they would all look awesome on your body and would look great with tights and closed toed heels. I couldn't find many "warm" dresses, but I stayed away from strapless and sleeveless and tried to find a bunch with longer sleeves if I could. I also picked out things I thought were modest but sexy at the same time-nothing too showy or over the top...a lot of these come in different colors too. I definitely went overboard, but I just love dress shopping!

Glad I could help, hope something works out for you!

I don't know when the dinner is, but their priority shipping is either free with a promo code or fairly cheap and it usually gets to me the day after I order-two tops (if I order in the evening)! I am in the US, but I'm sure Canadian orders would ship just as quickly!
