Miss Reese found herself the perfect warm weather Holiday dress:

Part “ring in the New Year,” part “Wonder Woman goes out for drinks.”

But that description, fabulous as it is, probably pays the look too high of a compliment. We love the idea of this dress – all stars and sparkles for a December movie premiere – but it’s pretty heavily overdone. The skirt works, but that bodice just looks like someone hit their manic phase halfway through embellishing it. And if there’s one thing this dress didn’t need, it was a lace panel running down the sternum. The only reason it works is because you can barely notice it amidst all the sparkle.

In fact, you could say that about the dress overall. Despite being a bit over-embellished, it somehow works for her – and we think it’s one of those instances where you’re so overwhelmed by the visual that you don’t even think about … how overwhelming the visual is. In other words, this dress is dazzling in every sense of the word.
