Navy is the new black

Gap European Collection wrap dress
I turned 40 this year, and suddenly I find that I’m looking for pieces that are both cool and age-appropriate (which is hard because I’ve never been all that cool, and I still mostly feel like I’m about 14 years old). Primarily, though, I’ve been looking for things that will not make me look 40, or at least not look like what we all fear 40 looks like.
Oh you know what I mean.
I’m looking for ways to be chic during the day without being overdressed; one simple solution is to substitute navy for black. Navy is less harsh and more flattering and still hip and chic. Right now I am coveting this fabulous silk wrap dress from the Gap’s European collection. Perfect for day with a cardigan and flats, or for evening with a big statement necklace and some sexy heels. The clean line is versatile but still grown up, and the price tag is perfect for every closet.
Gap European Collection wrap dress, $78.00.
