cynthia steffe black embroidered lace bustier dressJust a few more days, kitten, until you step out of your limo, sashay up the red carpet, and make your grand entrance as the belle of the New Year's Eve Ball.

Or maybe you're driving yourself.

And maybe the only red carpet is the wine-stained one at your friend's apartment.

Whatever the case, you will be the belle of the ball in your own world in Cynthia Steffe's Embroidered Bustier Dress. The strapless dress with a pleated empire waist means you will be comfortable, not having to suck it in all night. The bustier features soft ruching over a bodice that has boning for support and shaping. The highlight, of course, is the embroidered lace skirt, which falls a modest 19" to the knees.

Spray your exposed skin with some Sally Hansen AirBrush for legs (use it on your bare shoulders, too), slip into a pair of skyhigh stiletto pumps (sandals are too cold for January), and grab your black silk clutch.

Cynthis Steffe's Embroidered Bustier Dress is $305 at Saks. It is on sale for $180.
