Gossip Girl Style on the Cheap & Crock Pot Giveaway

Eric Daman has teamed up with Charlotte Russe to launch a party dress collection. Who is he and why is he significant?Eric Daman is Gossip Girl's stylist and now creative director for his Charlotte Russe "Eric Daman" fashion line. All dresses are priced under $50 which means these Upper Eastside dresses are way less expensive than what Serena and Blair wear.

{asymmetrical dress $39.50}

{dot print dress $39.50}

{embellished neck dress $34.50}

{fitted black dress $39.50}

{one shoulder mini dress $39.50}

{velvet and lace dress $39.50}

My thoughts on the collection: I really wish the dresses would have had fun names or even girl names such as "Blair." I think just calling a dress "velvet and lace" is very boring. For someone who is the stylist for such a chic show as Gossip Girl you would of thought some creativity would have went into the names. Maybe that is just me though. The only dress that I really fell in love with is the Embellished Neck Dress. I thought that it would be the perfect party dress. The collection is decent, but I wasn't wowed.

What are your thoughts on this collection?
