With prom season right around the corner, we can't help but reminisce on the memories of shopping for the perfect dress. Whether your ideal look is edgy, elegant, sexy, or sophisticated, nothing beats the feeling of dressing like a princess for an entire day. Unfortunately for us, our prom days are over and those gowns are still hanging in our closets looking as gorgeous as the day we tried them on for the very first time. Sigh. But whose to say that we can't find an excuse to wear them again or any formal dress for that matter? It's time to get nostalgic, because I am giving you five occasions that are perfect for dusting off those show-stopping gowns and getting those princess vibes back!
NewYears Eve
What better way to ring in the new year than by showing off your glamorous dress? Head to your local casino to dance the night away while listening to live music, drinking cocktails, and testing your luck on roulette! This classy burgundy gown from Dillards is the ideal New Years Eve look. Pair it with sparkly heals, statement earrings, and bold lipstick; and you'll be kissing your prince charming at midnight!
Birthday Bash
It's your party and you can dress how you want to - so why not wear a fabulous dress? Maybe you have one that's short and sassy? What better time to showcase it than at your own birthday celebration? No one will outshine you in a fun A-Line dress with feathers, rhinestones, and ruffles! Add a cute birthday sash and you'll surely be the center of attention!
Black-Tie Christmas Parties
Who doesn't love dressing up and going to a formal Christmas party? It's the perfect excuse to wear those embellished gold or silver dresses, drink wine, and eat fancy appetizers. What more could a girl ask for? This Jovani dress was perfect for the occasion! With the right amount of elegance and class, it turned heads at my husband and I's formal holiday gathering!
Formal Wedding's
Trying to find the perfect dress to wear to your cousins formal wedding? Look no further than your own closet! Pull out that short and sleek Jovani dress (the one with the sweetheart neckline and gold lace), throw on a pair of black heals, add some simple earrings, and Voila - a classy wedding look.
Charity Event
Dress for a cause and Reserve a table at a local charity event or gala. This is the perfect place to flaunt your swanky dress and ensure you stand out amongst the socialites. Add a chunky necklace to spice up your look and raise the style bar while also raising money for your favorite organization!
You are Royalty
You may not have been prom queen in high school but that shouldn't stop you from feeling like a queen on one or more of these occasions. Remember, your only competition is with yourself and feeling beautiful in your own skin is worth more than a tiara!
XOXO,
Ash
