8 Wedding Guest Dresses Under $100

What to wear for summer weddings, graduations, and other events!

I’m so excited to be graduating in a week and a half! My mom has been bugging me to choose a dress to wear to graduation so  I’ve been on the search for dresses that can also work as wedding guest dresses, or anything else that comes over the summer. My style is pretty simple day-to-day with a lot of black so I wanted to go with something that had color, a print, or crochet detailing.
