I love having a reason to get all dressed up! Spring formals provide just that opportunity. Everyone has their own unique style when it comes to formal. Some choose the sleek and sexy route with cut-outs and plunging necklines and others go for a more girly and preppy look with shift styles and vibrant prints – and then there’s everything in between. I tried to take into account the fact that there are a variety of styles and budgets when it comes to shopping. Happy formal season!
