There are a few classic items in every wardrobe – a little black dress, a crisp white shirt, and a slimming pencil skirt.
I also think that an elegant long sleeve dress should be a staple sartorial item as well. I’ve been searching/lusting after a few long sleeved mini/midi dresses and one of my favorite dresses for the office is a long short dress with a cute multicolored belt.
I instantly loved Jessica Alba’s Wes Gordon dress (though of course I’d have to sell a LOT of Honest products to afford her dress!). It is fitted and flattering with just a hint of a pattern in the skirt. It is such a great dress to wear to a function in the fall and winter – talk about instant ice queen elegance!
Here are my picks for a chic long sleeved dress at a more reasonable price point:
1. Tiana B Women’s Long Sleeve Wrap Dress, Amazon, $52.80 (from $72)
2. TFNC Body-Conscious Mini Dress Sequin, ASOS, $99.82
3. Lauren Ralph Lauren Long-Sleeve Buckle-Detail Jersey dress, Macy’s, $112.32 (from $144)
Long sleeves on a dress is very much needed when the weather goes colder. I usually have to wear cardigans as a lot of my dresses have short sleeves. Love the one Jessica is wearing, so lovely. Have a gorgeous day doll xx
I love that white dress!
So pretty!
I would totally wear the second one. I love it . Kisses and hugs, darling.
Jessica looks so polished in her LWD, love the middle one in your selection, great fit.
Jessica Alba really rocks that white dress! Fab picks!

The one on Jessica looks great, and I really like the ASOS white dress as well. Happy first week of December.

Great finds! I love the long-sleeved dress look.
Could Jessica look more beautiful? her hair, her eyebrows, her perfect accessorizing with those pumps and earrings…. and that dress. Goodness, it’s perfect. the hidden stripes in the pleats make me love it 100x more.
Gorgeous…looks perfect for winter!
I’ve always liked Jessica Alba. She’s gorgeous & classy. She always proves that you can be sexy and still a lady. Love that dress.
