Style Watch: Tiered Halter Dress



First, your outfit. Women do not wear dresses as often as they should. This is an empirical fact you'll find in any decent scientific journal. Treat yourself to a dress—but a comfortable one, and one that doesn't break the bank. You may have your heart set on that to-die-for floor-length McQueen. But you will be running around serving food, after all, and if you get a spill on it you shouldn't have to feel heartbroken.

No, Gap has a $70 dress that will let you stay comfortable while you charm your guests with a gorgeous, soft purple color. And it's machine washable. Or try their tiered halter dress that's on sale for as little as $19.99.

Finally, round it out with a flat espadrille or decent flip-flop. No heels if you're skittering about on grass.
