Spring, are you here yet? If you are like me, you’re probably wishing for the days when you can go anywhere wearing the pretty, floral, and girly spring dresses just waiting patiently from your closet. Here are 5 Spring Dresses to help whet your appetite until the day comes.
Forever21 Smocked Floral Dress, $22.80. A floral dress that’s not TOO floral.
Charlotte Russe Blurred Floral Strapless Maxi Dress, $29.99. One of the Maxi Dresses that I’m looking forward to wearing this Spring.

This Max and Cleo Ponte Dress is not like the other ponte dresses I’ve seen lately. Usually, the 2 color combination involves white on top, and black bodice skirt, or blue or yellow or red on top. And always, in solid color. This Max and Cleo dress is so much different. You still get the 2-toned details but the top is showcased in a print detail way. I just love the print design on top.
This is actually on sale for $64.80. The regular price was $108 from Dillard’s. If you like this gorgeous ponte dress like I do …read more

I once said that I’m not for Animal-Print Dresses. It’s just too much for me. Well, that was on July of this year. This Karen Kane Animal Print Dress changed my mind.
I like the subtlety of the animal print combined with the black. I also like the long full sleeves. I can wear this with brown tights underneath and brown boots. Another fashion tip of the day, I wouldn’t wear my animal-print heels with this dress. Coz then that would be uber-animal print everywhere .
This Karen Kane Animal-Print dress is on sale for $64.80 at Dillard’s. …read more
Michael Kors Jewel Neck Shift Dress, $70
This Michael Kors Jewel Neck Shift Dress is on sale for $69.99. A pretty Little Black Dress for the upcoming Holidays or any special occasions for that matter. The jeweled neckline trend has taken a life of it’s own ever since it started a few years back. This Michael Kors black dress is chic and sassy at the same time. I love the clean lines and silhouette.
You don’t even need to add anything. It stands on it’s own classic quality. Well except for shoes of course. Gotta have the right pair of pumps. Peep-toe, round-toe, or the …read more

Nicky Hilton sported a leather strapless dress, leather biker jacket, Christian Louboutin booties and her sidekick CHANEL bag while attending an H&M exclusive celebrity shopping event yesterday. Surprisingly, all that leather didn’t turn me off. I really prefer Nicky Hilton’s fashion sense over her sister Paris.
Without doing the all-leather route, I came up with my own version of Nicky Hilton’s strapless dress, jacket & booties look for less. I even found a CHANEL quilted chain handbag replica. YAY!

Melania Trump looked every bit like a millionaire’s wife in her v-neck LBD dress and red pumps at the Museum of Modern Art Film Benefit event last night. You can never go wrong with the Little Black Dress. Melania accessorized with diamond (I’m assuming) bangle only. And of course the sexy red pumps. It’s a very simple yet glamorous look that a lot of Starlets need to learn.
I have 2 versions of Melania Trump’s LBD & Red Pumps look for less. Hope you like them.

Fall season is almost here but there still an onslaught of beautiful Maxi print dresses everyday. I don’t care if it’s Fall anyway. I live in NC, it doesn’t get that cold. So I’m pretty sure I’d still be wearing some dresses. I dare you to stop me, hehe. Here are two more maxi strapless dresses you might like also.
Tribal Maxi Dress, $27.80. Don’t you just move that print?
One more dress after the fold…

I love the colorblock trend. I’m so happy it became big this year. I bought a $15 colorblock dress early this year but haven’t had a chance to show myself in it. Sorry. Life’s been hectic and taking pictures of me wearing my Under $100 outfits has taken a backseat. I’m sure once the school starts I’ll be posting more of my chic and affordable ensembles regularly. Anyhooo, sorry for going off the tangent, here are a couple of colorblock dresses that I’ve seen lately that I wouldn’t mind having myself.
Embroidered Coloblock Strapless Dress, $29.80

As much as I feature dresses from Forever21 here at Style It Less, there are some dresses I don’t like. It’s mostly because of their bold animal prints. I like the latter, in minimal. Not the way they’re blinding my eyes like the dresses below.
Contrasting Print Short Dress, $22.80
Safari Spaghetti Dress, $22.80
Safari Form Fitting Spaghetti Dress, $22.80
Safari Tube Dress, $22.80
Animal Print Dress, $22.80
I like animal prints done minimally. Like in shoes or in clutches. Or a block of animal print in a solid color dress. In full blown animal printed dresses, not so much. …read more
