Neon never looked as good as it does here on this mushroom colored cotton poplin dress!  Perfect for kicking off the summer!

The White Party is coming up- if you need a last minute dress, this one is both adorable and wallet-friendly!  At only $108, this pocketed twill dress will go fast- come snap one up!

We love everything about this dress- the bold, kaleidoscope of colors, the black accents, the graphic print.  They all add up to make this silk Trina Turk dress the freshest way to start the season.

We’re so excited to tell you about this party!  Thursday, May 27th, we’re celebrating the most fabulous movie of the summer- Sex and the City 2!  Join us at Speakeasy for a fashion show presented by Dress Shop and Teddies for Bettys, guest-styled by Michelle Rodriguez of Well Styled.  The party starts at 7pm, fashion show at 8pm and the first 100 people to arrive get gift bags filled with tons of girly goodies- think spa certificates, personal shopping discounts…  you get the picture.

Also enjoy showcases from Micah Yancey Jewelry (a Dress Shop favorite!), Spectacle Sunglasses, Limbo Jewelry Design, Camille’s Better Bronze Airbrush Tanning, and handcrafted sweet and savory treats from GoGo Delicious!  All in all, a great girls night out!

DO NOT miss it!

Join us tonight at 5:30 for a fabulous evening celebrating Cassandra Collections!  Pick up something special for the most important woman in your life- your mother, that is!  Mother’s Day is three days away!  Hope to see you tonight!

Some of these have been in the store, but we’ve never posted them here.  We simply love a pink dress.  And the navy tunic dress is the perfect summer wardrobe item.

We leave tomorrow for New York- to look at some holiday items for the shop, reconvene with some old friends and, more importantly, to EAT!

We’ve got reservations for Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday (morning and night) and we will give you a full report when we return!  Pictures and all…

Things have been going VERY quickly this season at Dress Shop.  We hate to show you something you can’t have (like the trench dress from last week’s What to Wear this Weekend email- it sold out that afternoon!), but we’d like to remind you that if there’s ever something you simply must have that isn’t in stock, please ask us and we will do our absolute best to help you get what you need.

Back to the issue at hand: this amazing dress from Sine came in less than a week ago…  And it is SOLD OUT!

A Dress Shop Original, this ribbon necklace was handmade by yours truly..

SOLD OUT

Going fast!  This is $88, so it will be gone before too long!

Below are a few more new dresses and accessories that we love.  We’ve saved some of our favorite new arrivals for this week’s edition of What to Wear this Weekend, so if you haven’t signed up, make sure you do at the bottom of this page!

Okay, first, we are twittering now (@DressShopAustin)…  Follow us and maybe there will be a surprise “in store” for you, haha, pun intended.

Now, on to the good stuff.  New arrivals below!

Come visit us at The Library Bar when you’re strolling down Sixth Street- we’ve got a beautiful and fun selection of our most coveted accessories.  And don’t forget to bring your friends- it’s an absolutely gorgeous St. Patrick’s Day! This picture, taken at 11am, is the calm before the storm:
