I found a black tie friendly wedding guest dress for $45 on Amazon, people say it’s ‘gorgeous’ and I agree
A WEDDING guest proved that she knew how to do black tie on a budget.
The frugal find that was fancy affair approved cost less than $50.
“Is this black tie appropriate?” asked Reddit user (@shortbus_gangster).
The savvy shopper seemed to be in disbelief that her dress could actually be acceptable attire for such a high-end occasion considering the price.
She could be seen modeling the long, sleeveless, light-blue gown with ruffles coming down both sides.
Still, it seemed she had nothing to worry about as her fans were wowed by the wedding look.
“It screams daytime but is gorgeous!” exclaimed one impressed user.
“I agree, but then again it was good enough for Cinderella lol. I got it on Amazon,” she said.
She was certainly sure to be the belle of the ball in this budget-friendly find.
“I actually found it on Amazon if you can believe! Was like $40. I’ll definitely get it in more colors later on, it’s so stretchy,” she explained.
“Looks great and you look fabulous in it,” another Reddit user gave her opinion.
“You’re so sweet,” she happily responded.
“Beautiful dress and looks amazing on you,” said one enthralled viewer.
The Pretty Garden long formal sleeveless ruffle maxi bodycon dress sold for $44.99 on Amazon.
The frock was described as offering a curve-hugging fit in all the right places as well as elasticity for a more flexible wearing experience.
Other purchasers were also giving the ruffled look rave reviews.
“I love this dress! So flattering and such a good fit. Very classy and elegant,” wrote one fellow fashion lover.
Another wedding guest wearer also weighed in.
“I purchased this dress to wear as a bridesmaid for my friend’s wedding. This dress is gorgeous. The style gives a very elegant and sexy look while still being modest.
“The fabric is silky and soft. The fit is true to the size chart and the color true to what is shown. The dress is comfortable to wear and you can wear this style to any occasion. The quality is fabulous for the price,” she wrote.
The wedding guest had yet another question for Reddit users as she attempted to complete her final black tie look.
“The wedding is at 6 pm. Warm weather. Wanted to also ask if the Staud bag is too casual or if the silver clutch is better. Thinking of an updo.”
She wore a blue and white floral print handbag over her shoulder which she then compared to a sparkly clutch.
“Dress is gorgeous. Without the purse, if you can afford a lovely clutch to match your shoes,” one viewer chimed in.
“Yeah, after looking at it again the clutch is the way to go. Shame because I was excited the bag had the same shade of blue! lol,” she replied.
“Dress is lovely. Not the first purse. Second purse if you can’t find anything better. I would do sparkly shoes and a sparkly clutch,” another user agreed.
Still, others were fans of the first, more casual option.
“I actually way prefer the handbag to the clutch and think you should wear some black/navy/blue heels to match,” shared one follower.
“You can totally use that bag, it’s gorgeous!” agreed yet another user.
