Weddings, graduations, birthday parties...they seem to all happen in the summer! Stuck on what to wear to that fancy event around the corner?  We found the perfect dressy look to fit your style.

 

Sweet pea-chy style

This look is inspired by girly girl Selena Gomez.  She’s always looking sweet, whether she’s on-set or on a date with that BF! A light peach dress looks oh-so-cute with nude pumps and a matching bag.  Girly floral bracelets add some interest but still work with the posh pink theme.  Keep your makeup fresh and light, but don’t forget the pink gloss!  You’ll look ready for any fancy summer event in this girly look.

Round Platform Pumps, $20, forever21.com 

Romantic Rosette Bracelet, $9, forever21.com 

Faceted Daisies Bracelet, $7, forever21.com 

 

Colorful cutie

More into a retro, funky style like Ariana Grande? Bright colors are your new BFF! A cobalt dress turns up the heat when paired with posh pink pumps.  A multicolor cocktail ring adds serious bling to your fingers while a neon clutch is a stylish way to stash your stuff.  Cutesy heart earrings are the final touch on a perfectly punchy summer party look. 

 
 

C’mon Feel the Turquoise Dress, $93, modcloth.com

Asos Santo Suede Point Court Shoes, $63, asos.com 

Cute Structured Purse in Yellow, $38, lulus.com

 

Boho babe

You’ll feel totally breezy in this boho look inspired by Miley Cyrus.  Start with a flowy neutral dress and pile on the turquoise jewelry for a totally earthy look.  Tan and cork wedges add sky-high style and a cheetah clutch serves as a trendy pop of print.  Gold details highlight your fab tan and glowing skin! Finish off the look with a loose side braid to get that perf “undone” look.

I love all the looks, but they are a little pricey. I don't have $93 to spend on just a dress, no matter HOW cute it is. I also think it would be cool if Girl's Life did a post with abousolutly no online clothes websites because I don't want to make an account and recieve emails from a website I'm only going to visit to buy something.

I have a blue lacy skort with a brown feather coming down on the side. I got it on January 17 and still have not worn it because i have no idea what to wear it with. any suggestions?




Hey girl.

It's hard to say without knowing exactly what it looks like, but I would just try wearing a plain tank top with it! It sounds like it probably already has a lot going on, so you don't want to overwhelm the look with a busy top. Just something simple!

Adorable dresses, but soccerlover99 has a point: not all of us girls can buy dresses at $129.

I have a ton of summer parties coming up, and my plan is to wear a variety of different sundresses.
