President-elect Barack Obama has ordered his first new tuxedo in 15 years for his inaugural celebration.   The marching band from his high school in Hawaii has been invited to join the parade. January 20th is going to be here before we can bat an eye, and if you are planning on being in Washington DC for one of the biggest Inaugural parties ever, you should only be thinking of one thing right now:

What are you going to wear???

Calm down. Please don’t panic. Don’t worry. Loehmann’s has got you covered better than the secret service has plans for covering the President Elect.

For our Inaugural party goers close to the Chevy Chase, Falls Church, Rockville, Timonium, Fairfax and Columbia Loehmann’s locations, we are holding a pre-party party just for you. A huge assortment of evening dresses, gowns and separates that will be perfect for any Inaugural Event has arrived at these locations.

Even if you haven’t received your tickets for the biggest party in the country, can you resist names like Teri Jon, Kay Unger, Tadashi, Laundry, Adrianna Papell, JS Collections, Calvin Klein and more? The best of designer names in the most beautiful of all gowns.

These beauties will be, like all Loehmann’s fabulous finds, 60 to 75% off the normal retail prices of $110 to $850.  Translated, that’s 39.99 – 179.99 for gowns and dresses that can not only get you into a ball, but a White House Ball.

For an American princess at the finest American Ball, you don’t need a fairy godmother. You just need Loehmann’s.

While Tina Fey is definitely more known right now for her SNL appearances as Sarah Palin, we need to get our priorities straight and bring all this political talk back to fashion:

Tina Fey looked fantastic on the Emmy red carpet wearing a David Meister original gown.

 Yes, she lost her purse, but winning for outstanding lead actress, outstanding writing, and then the top outstanding comedy series, 30 Rock, can pretty much make up for a lost bag. It is great to see an intelligent actress and writer being honored for funny and smart acting and writing. 

Now frequently, if a woman scores well with intelligence, the media has a field day ripping apart her appearance, but that just can’t happen with Tina Fey. For the big Emmy red carpet walk, Tina wore a tailored, yet sexy David Meister strapless gown in a classic navy blue. And everyone had to admit, funny and looks great!

As with most of David Meister’s collections, the classic lines and beautiful fit are  made to be worn by women who not only want to look beautiful, but feel beautiful as well. So while you might not be as rip roaring funny as Tina, or impersonate a vice presidential hopeful; you can look as good as she does thanks to Loehmann’s.

Loehmann’s has a lovely shipment of David Meister designs hitting the selling floor.

So even if you don’t have a red carpet event in your near future, Holiday parties and events are right around the corner.  While it might be tempting to pretend to be Tina Fey, the best bet is to just follow her lead. And be who you are naturally, showing off your own talents and assets in a well fitting, beautifully designed David Meister original.

Plus, if it is from Loehmann’s where your fashion sense and your fashion cents combine, allowing you to get the best for less.

 Hi! Ava here with another fantastic buyer’s tip for you!

I just confirmed that Loehmann’s is receiving a lovely quantity of Carmen Marc Valvo dresses at 70% off the regular prices.

A favorite of many Hollywood celebs, Carmen Marc Valvo dresses are often seen on the red carpet at many swanky awards events.   Lara Spencer, the host of the TV show “The Insider”  has been seen wearing a Carmen Marc Valvo on the show and wore a Carmen Marc Valvo dress to the Oscars this past year as well. As Spencer says in a US Magazine Article.

 “I wore a great Carmen Marc Valvo gown to the Oscars this year. I felt like a movie star – and two of my fashion idols actually asked me where I got my dress. I mean, how often does a girl share style secrets with J. Lo?”

Now, you might be thinking, “I don’t need a dress that fancy! I don’t have any red carpet events coming up.”  And that may be true my fashion loving friend, but I have two words for you: Holiday Parties!

Fall is officially here and that means that party season is right around the corner. You know you’re going to get an invite to some fou-fou event and the first thing that is going to run through your mind is:   

“I have nothing to wear!”

Prevent that fashion panic and plan ahead.  With a Carmen Marc Valvo dress just waiting in your closet, you will be ready, able and perfectly dressed for whatever invitation the mailman might bring.

I mean, we are talking the right dress at the right price. You won’t get another opportunity like this!  With new stock, you can have your pick of styles and sizes.  You won’t spend a million bucks but you can feel like you did.  Plus, what better day to shop than this coming Thursday for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund event? Great designer, great dresses, great prices.. for a great cause!

Remember: Holiday parties plus Carmen Marc Valvo dresses equals fabulous you.

And that’s the Loehdown!
