As the snow starts melting and those extra holiday pounds start showing, the dreaded season starts to approach, Wedding season. It’s easy to find dresses to wear if you belong in the bridal party but what about us girls who need to attend a plethora of weddings as a guest on a small budget? Since I’ve recently fallen into this problem myself I’ve decided to share what I’ve found.
I ‘ve selected several dresses from modcloth.com since they are fairly inexpensive, have a great return policy (when that perfect dress ends up a fail) and they make a statement. You’ll also be sure you won’t get stuck with a dress that will sit in the back of your closet. On a low budget you need every penny to count.
Spring can be a messy season, especially now that most brides are opting for outside weddings. Bugs are hatching and the weather is usually a murky warm. So what to wear in this unexpected season while still looking fly?!
The ” Rosette Reception Dress”
It has all the charm of a strapless dress while maintaining the statement of a one sleev-er. The back material is black and is spotted with little flowers of pale pinks and purples. The top is fitted and the skirt floats away from the body while reinstating the fact that you have a figure. It’s a shorter dress, but the inches are listed on the modcloth website. Why I think it’s perfect? It seems like a cool dress to wear in potential humid weather. It also celebrates the spring feeling with small flowers and its flirty shape. Its price comes to a total of $64.99 before shipping and handling. Not a bad price for a dress you can wear for multiple occasions.
The “Beading Heart Dress”
If you love romantic dresses and empire waist dresses than this look is for you! Its color is a pale Champaign pink, a soft look for that spring attitude.
