Dress of the Day: Ruffled Dress by Nikka

ruffled dressIt's a little bit feminine, a little bit fashionably menwear-y, and lot sexy. In fact, it kind of has that Secretary feel.

The Ruffled Dress from Kanica Cruz by Nikka looks modest with all the girlish ruffles around the neck, the conservative menswear pin-stripe print, a hemline that falls to the knee, the wide belt, and the long, full sleeves that end in a knit cuff, but take a closer look and you'll see that the neckline takes a sexy plunge all the way down to, well, there.

But hey, did you expect anything less from a dress at Victoria's Secret? Pair this with a pair of black patent leather peep-toe platform heels (one Christian Louboutin comes to mind) and you're set.

The Ruffled Dress is $228.
