One of our own needs a dress for her anniversary, but she’s stuck…

“Can I get some of that classic CoJ community help finding a spring dress?” Amy messaged over Instagram. “My first wedding anniversary is next month, and my husband and I are heading from Minnesota to NYC for the weekend! We’re having dinner at a cute Italian spot in the West Village, and I’m hoping to find a special dress.

(I’m 5’1” so maxi dresses rarely work on me.) And I love florals!”

Thoughts? What would you suggest? What do you wear on date nights? I’d wear this lipstick, too!
