…Can you guess what it is?
I miss choosing pretty dresses for prom + homecomings. (Well that and less responsibility..but I digress). I always loved the hunt of finding the “perfect” prom/homecoming/Christmas dance dress, and even though my style choices were questionable (at best) back then, I still had a blast creating my looks. I didn’t go the sorority route in college, so I rarely needed dresses for formals or events, and sometimes missed getting fancy.
Since I have two younger sisters I’ve loved helping them find unique dresses for prom, homecoming, date dance, graduation and May Crowning, and I feel like they are way more stylish than I was at that age. I attribute a lot of that to ASOS and Rent the Runway (both resources my friends and I didn’t have in high school haha).We have found so many killer dresses for my sister Gretchen as ASOS, and that is actually where I snagged my dress from.
Luckily (or unluckily) for me, I’m at the age where friends are starting to get married. I’m a bridesmaid in a wedding at the end of April and a guest at one the end of May, online pharmacy no prescription usa which means pretty dresses are in my future again. I’m debating wearing this dress to the May wedding, but I can’t decide if its too young….what do you think?
Also – if any of you ladies on a budget need dresses for anything this summer my recs would be ASOS, Rent the Runway and Lulu’s (personally I am not the biggest Lulu’s fan, but many friends love their stuff).
Happy Hump Day friends. Thanks so much for reading + stay tuned for Friday —> a big life update post is coming your way.

PS. This dress could work well if you’re a “dress up for Easter” kind of person as well 🙂

Yes!! I miss high school dances so much, specifically for the fun dresses and getting all dolled up. 🙂 I think that dress would be great for a wedding – I like how fun it is. And those shoes … yes.
I’m leaning toward keeping it/wearing it to the wedding. it is a summer wedding after all 🙂
This is so whimsical and fun; I love it! I think it’s great for a wedding, too!
Thank you Chelsea! so far votes are yes!
Oh my gosh, I’ve been debating on getting this dress. You look gorgeous in it!!
Thank you Laura – I think the cut of it would be super flattering on you!

Thank you so much Heather!
This is such a fun dress! I think it would be great for a wedding depending on the dress code. I also wish that Asos and Rent the Runway were around in high school. I would have been so much better dressed!

Thank you Carrie!
That dress is adorable on you! I love it. I miss getting all dressed up too. I didn’t do a sorority in college either, so my days of formal dresses ended in high school.

This dress and it’s floral details are freaking amazing! So sad it’s sold out! Love it on you, though.

Thank you so much Jennifer – hopefully they restock!
I love this dress…and as soon as you suggested Easter, I was like YES!!
Looking back, I wish I had taken prom dress picking more seriously. I only got to do it once as homecoming isn’t a thing where I live…oh well. Wedding dress shopping will happen someday…right?
As usual, you look amazing!
