If you’ve got to go, you might as well go in style, right? And of course, not spend a lot in the process, right? I don’t know about you, but I’ve got three weddings this summer, and as much as I’d like to recycle what I already have, sometimes it’s fun to pick up a new weddings & party dress — if the price is right! Go for something with a sheen to it, and a vibrant color for sure. Below are Fashion Pulse Daily’s top six wedding dress picks for summer 2009:
Michelle Dress, $54.50
Sheen Bubble Pleat Dress, $14.50
Style&co. Pintucked Sleeveless Voile Dress $32.20 (was $46)
Splendid Heather Modal V Neck Dress , $80 (was $160)

A jewel-toned satin holiday dress for under $15? Count me in! I’m definitely not going to pass up this Natane Tube Dress, $14.50 as my Forever 21 Pick of the Day! There are currently six colors to choose from and plenty of sizes still available. My favorite is most definitely the red, but the magenta could be fun for New Year’s….maybe I should get both??? This dress looks fabulous paired with a little velvet bolero or cardigan, sheer black hosiery, a bow clutch, and killer heels. Add $5.95 for s&h.

When we see something totally adorable, and deem it a must-have, we don’t care where it comes from. Such is the case with the Michelle Dress, $54.50 dELiA*s — it’s party perfect extremely feminine, and incorporates the right bow and satin trends for fall 2008. Need we say more? Oh yeah, choose from black or pink. Add around $6 for s&h.

On the runways this season the numerous neutral color palettes gave us a bit of a fall chill. However, designers like DKNY, Carolina Herrera, and Anna Sui heated things up with sultry bustier dresses reminiscent of 1950’s pin-up girls like Betty Page. These fun, yet glamorous frocks were seen in a myriad of prints, colors, and fabrics, thus making the trend work both for a casual day about town or for a big night out. We loved how DKNY paired her dress with a long blazer to contrast the way the top of the garment highlights the female form. This colorful look is perfect on a sunny, spring day. Carolina Herrera added some sophistication and sultry class to this sexy trend via decorative trim and jewel tones.
We’ve found some fabulous affordable versions of the style too, so you can get the look without breaking the bank! We found this Satin and Lace Tube Dress with a lace overlay for $22.80 at Forever 21. Next, TopShop’s aubergine-hued Satin Bodycon Dress ($100) subtly displays a clean, zig-zag pattern on the bust. The Ruffled Tweed Strapless Dress ($159, Bebe). Last, we love how the Kimchi Blue Sunday In The Park Dress ($78, Urban Outfitters) makes the trend casual with a plaid print, halter straps, and puckered skirt detailing.
We can’t wait to give our simple “little black dresses” a rest in exchange for a bustier dress. Pairing it with some bright red lipstick and fierce heels will give any girly girl certainly some edge!
