Fall into fashion with budget-friendly, jaw-dropping styles all under $100 fit for any queen. Put daddy’s credit card away, cut shopping time in half, and effortlessly look A-list worthy for the first school dance of the year. Shopping for a dress can be hectic and frustrating at times, it’s just one of the perks of being a woman. Tune into these red carpet inspired trends to ease up on the pressure and spark insight.
- Glam it up! Shimmer on the dance floor with a sequined showstopper. A metallic dress is the perfect way to make a statement without being tacky.
- Floral prints are a cute and feminine way for a super-sweet look. Pair it with a soft updo, rosy cheeks, and killer peep-toe pumps to complete the look.
- Any cut, any style of ruching in a dress is a sophisticated yet classic look. Go strapless, do a halter-top or even add some sleeves. Not only does ruching appeal to the eye, but also as a bonus, diagonal ruching keeps the tummy looking thin and trim!
- A floor-length gown may seem too over-the-top for homecoming, but not if done right. Do a bright color that compliments your skin tone and a structured twist to enhance your figure.
- Tribal prints are hitting common teen stores such as Forever21 and H&M, and are definitely doable for homecoming. Pair one of your summerfest dresses with a chunky bracelet and hot cocktail ring to add that glam factor.
- Prance into homecoming in your favorite animal print. Cheetah and zebra prints seem to be a trend sticking around. Don’t look like you just left the jungle, but do look fierce. Go solid on the shoes and accessories. This dress can be reusable for multiple events.
- Lace your dress up for a playful, party girl look. If you can’t find any lace that appeals to you, do it yourself. Find a dress that you like and stop by your local craft store such as Michaels or Hobby Lobby, and add the trimming. Don’t settle for a dress, love your dress.
