I am going to a work party -- I need a cool top to wear with jeans for a night of dancing. Something with sparkle or something? Flattering :)

I am 5'10" and 147 lbs -- size 6/8.

Thanks!

So for dancing, I tend to think cheap and sleeveless. Maybe something like this?

If you are willing to spend more, I'll go look at Nordstorm's page. :D

Can't go wrong with one of the sparkly tops from Express:

eta- I have one like the Nordstrom links that I bought at Target, the One Star brand. Not as nice, of course, but very cute and fun:

I like a lot of these because you could wear a bra with them. It's hard to find something that isn't really low in the back or one shouldered or would not accommodate a bra, and is still dance-worthy! And for a work function (and for most things) I really feel more comfortable in a bra and I was thinking hillview might too!

Similar to this Chico's top- I bought this one (http://www.loft.com/loft/catalog/productDetails.jsp?prodId=269625&colorExplode=false&skuId=10215852&catid=cat640048&productPageType=fullPriceProducts&defaultColor=9402&prodId=269625) at LOFT in purple for DH's xmas party. It is on sale for $20.99 right now.

I just bought this dress in Navy and Black. The available sizes fluctuate by the hour but once I bought the black, I needed the navy. I'm also a 6/8 but purchased the 8 and it fits perfectly, I think the 8 or 10 would be great for you (I am a bit shorter).
I love it, the material is good quality. I have a convertible bra that I can use....maybe it's long shot I love this dress!
