The phrase “don’t be picky” applies to certain things in life, like what movie to choose for a casual night in or where to grab a quick bite before work, but it doesn’t apply to fashion. You deserve to be picky when it comes to fit, style, design, price, material and anything else regarding clothes! The pickier you are, the less you spend on low-quality or ill-fitting pieces that live in the back of your closet — indefinitely.
15 Everyday Dresses to Look Rich This New Year — Our Favorites Under $50 on Amazon
That said, it’s difficult to shop when you’re picky; you won’t settle for a semi-flattering outfit or a tolerable shade of brown you’re not crazy about. Nope! You hold out until you find the perfect piece, which is hard to come by (but totally worth it once you find it). The perfect dress is particularly hard to find, but we found one that will check all of your boxes and even a few you didn’t know you had. If flattering, lightweight, stylish, flowy, elegant, affordable and versatile are on your requirements list, grab a pen and get to checking!
This dress is sophisticated and charming, combining an empire waist fit with a wrap v-neck design, a smocked back waistband, billowy lantern sleeves and side slits that show off your legs, but doesn’t go overboard (if you know what we mean). It’s also soft, lightweight and skin-friendly; the polyester material will keep you perfectly temperate at warm-weather gatherings and winter gatherings alike. Just don’t forget a jacket during the cold months!
Style aside, this dress nails it in the flattering department. A high empire waist makes your torso and legs look longer and minimize your waist, an ideal combo if you seek a lean appearance. The puff sleeves flatter your arms while the v-neckline shows off your collarbone. Oh, and did we mention this dress has a loose, flowy fit? It won’t make you feel constrained in any capacity or highlight any trouble areas. If anything, it will hide them!
This dress was practically made for any wedding, birthday party, Valentine’s (or Galentine’s Day) dinner or work event on your agenda. It pairs beautifully with strappy heels and a shoulder bag, but you can make it a cold-weather outfit by wearing it with tall boots, a long fur jacket and an oversized tote. So chic!
And if you love the style but aren’t feeling pink, this dress comes in five other colors. Good luck choosing just one! You’ll catch Us wearing the pink one on Valentine’s Day, the red one for the holidays and the black one to work. So take your pick and get ready for compliment central!
