This organza dress is perfect for such an occasion (or any event really).

I had my eye on it the moment it dropped, but I took my time, not wanting to pay full price. And it paid off for all of us as it’s now on sale!

A little more about this dress: I went back and forth on which color to get. I obviously loved the striped one, but also the azure blue. Spoiler: I ended up buying it in both colors and I have zero regrets about it!

It mostly runs TTS, however, is on the larger side. If you are in between sizes, go with the smaller one. I bought it in small, and I loved it so much that I decided to buy it in azure blue as well (sadly, sold out in XS and S at this time). I got lucky and found it in XS and decided to go with it and it’s perfect!

I love that it has pockets, as that’s not a detail often found in dresses of this kind. Based on reviews, this dress has too much fabric for some, but as I’m a fan of “the more fabric, the better”, this dress is perfection. The only downside is the lining, which is not as wide as the shell and thus, doesn’t allow taking big steps — you’d have to lift it for that.

That aside, another thing I really love about this dress is that it can be easily dressed up or down.

To dress it down, wear it with a jean jacket — I think it will go perfectly with it! I like this classic jean jacket, this one for a darker wash, and this white one. Finish with your choice of shoes for an instantly elevated casual look. Scroll below for more picks/ideas.

I decided to dress it up a bit and wore it with pearl drop earrings, specifically because I thought it would go really well with the white stripes on the dress. I also wore it with a chunky pearl necklace and a more dainty one. Scroll below for more picks/ideas.
