Personal Shopper: Housewarming Party

Reader Request

My request is about what to wear for my own housewarming party. My boyfriend and I recently purchased a house together and both of us are inviting our friends together to see the house. There are some people coming that I've never met. I want to be casual, but I also want to be well put together. I think I want to wear a dress. I love heels (the higher they are, the closer to God, right?), but would be open to flats, too if that's what a more casual outfit calls for. I'm 5'1" and of "average" weight--around 115, but I am VERY bottom heavy in the rear, hips and thighs. Any ideas you can throw at me would be very appreciated! Thanks!!

I recommend a bright but casual dress in an a-line shape (which will be the most flattering on you) and some cute wedges - that way, you'll have some height but won't be overdressed. Congrats on your new home!
