I’m always on the lookout for super affordable and twirl-worthy dresses, and Amazon is my absolute favorite place to find them! Trust me, there are definitely some duds out there, and I’ve been disappointed by my fair share of orders, but I’m here to let you know that these both pass the quality test! With spring and summer fast approaching, either one would be perfect for a shower, wedding, family photos, or a fancy brunch!

This first one has a gorgeous small-scale floral pattern on a muted teal background. It comes in lots of color options (24 to be exact!) if this particular one doesn’t happen to be your cup of tea!

It has adjustable straps (always v important!) and 2 lightly ruched tiers that start underneath the bust and make it extremely forgiving around the mid-section, if you know what I mean. 😉 However, you should also know that there is zero stretch to this fabric, so the bust area is not quite as forgiving as the rest of the dress. If you have a bigger chest, you might want to consider sizing up.

Sizing info: I’m 5’6”, wearing the XS and it hits right above my ankle | Pattern: “Picture85-acid Blue”

This second little number is such a sweet and sophisticated maxi and comes in 11 colors for you to choose from! I’m not typically a huge fan of animal print, but this is such a small and subtle pattern that you barely even notice that’s what it is! It’s made from a super light and breezy fabric, but is also lined (to just below the knee) so it’s not see-through at all!

The top portion is stretchy and smocked, but not restrictive. The long tiers drape nicely and the fluttery sleeves are super flattering.

Oh, and pro tip: even if you don’t have a specific event that you NEED one of these for, it’s totally okay to treat yourself to a twirly dress, blast some Taylor Swift, and dance around the house. It’s guaranteed to bring you some much needed joy! For more affordable and colorful style, come hang out with me on Instagram!
