A Simple Halter Dress

Halter neck dresses are having a serious fashion moment right now and they are being worn by so many people, especially influencers themselves! The neck twist is enough to make the simple dress stand out in such a classy way. It looks so put together with such a minimal detail. A dress like this can be worn with white lace up heels and to make things a little more exciting, maybe go with a white strappy heel with silver in the straps. This is the Jasmine Halter Mini Dress from Show Me Your Mumu. It can be shopped here. If you are going for a great look, pair a diamanté bag with this dress. Amazon has some very similar options for 1/4 of the price if you wanted to go with this one.

Fringe & More Fringe!

Ever since this style first emerged it has been on the hottest lists and is staying that way! It is such a powerful accessory for any dress and the fringe alone is enough to make this the perfect graduation dress. It is such a sweet and fun dress for any occasion and will be sure to turn heads! This is the Tula by Jenny Yoo dress. Here is the link. Lulus, Akira, and Amazon have similar alternatives of this popular dress. Fringe looks so good in photos, especially when you are captured spinning or turning in it.

Tutus for Days!

Two things that look adorable and classy: bows and pearls. This dress accomplishes both of those. The bows are so cute and the pearls are so elegant. This is the perfect graduation dress for any girl who is trying to be a trendsetter. With this dress, I would pair either pearl heels like the Dolce Vita Noel ones, bow heels, or simple white heels. This dress doesn’t need any accessories to make it pop. It can do that by itself. If you were going to wear jewelry with it, maybe you can do a minimalistic stainless steel bow necklace or a simple pearl necklace.
