This gray Tahari dress reminds me a lot of the popular J.Crew Origami dress — the neckline is very similar, but the sleeves look a bit different, and this gray suiting material looks very different than the wool crepe used for the J.Crew dress. The Tahari version is very well-reviewed on Nordstrom, though — so if you for some reason have tried the J.Crew dress and didn't like the fit on you, maybe give this one a try. (I'd probably swap out the animal print belt for one of my own, probably in a sedate color like black or maybe a dark purple.) It's $128 at Nordstrom. Tahari by Arthur S.

It may be too late for the morning thread, but can anyone recommend vegetarian restaurants in DC? We have some friends visiting from out of town this weekend, and we need some good veggie options. We have plans for dinner at Zaytinya, so we are looking for lunch spots near the mall or in Arlington / Rosslyn area. Thank you!
Not full-on veggie, but Cafe Asia has good veggie options.
Not in NOVA, but I hear lots of raves for Founding Fathers in Georgetown.
Question about Ann Taylor Celebrations collection: is there anywhere on earth I can try on their dresses? Or do I really need to order blind?
Hmmm… Four years ago, they had them at select stores. It was an option on their website’s “store locator,” which I don’t see now.
I’d call customer service and ask, but it doesn’t look promising. I will say that the dress was gorgeous and flattering.
