Two Best, Affordable Dress Options for Easter & Kentucky Oaks
Two Best, Affordable Dress Options for Easter & Kentucky Oaks | Baby Blue and Blush
Visiting my local Gordmans store is always like an exciting treasure hunt; I never know what goodies I’ll end up finding to bring home. On my most recent trip, I hoped to find some dresses that could work for Easter, spring weddings, Derby, and Mother’s Day. This first option immediately caught my eye. The blush, baby blue, and navy color combo is a personal favorite for spring. If you’re a regular blog reader, you likely know that I love all kinds of stripes. These vertical, pastel stripes are no exception!

Two Best, Affordable Dress Options for Easter & Kentucky Oaks | Accessorizing the Look
After I picked this dress, I knew I had a fascinator that would match for Oaks day, but I still needed a clutch. I picked out this blush and gold chain crossbody from Gordmans. The fact that you can carry it as a clutch or crossbody is super handy and this smaller size works for Churchill Downs, date night, and wedding season.

Two Best, Affordable Dress Options for Easter & Kentucky Oaks | Express Rescue
Who loves Express? Who wishes they could get Express clothing at a much lower price? Gordmans to the rescue! My store had just gotten a new shipment of Express clothes in so I made sure to take my time going through the racks. This rose pink, lace midi dress ended up jumping into my cart. I’m a big fan of high necklines and the love the feminine detail this eyelash lace adds.

Two Best, Affordable Dress Options for Easter & Kentucky Oaks | Adding in Neutrals
Instead of going for a bold color combination, I picked out neutral pieces that let this dress stand out. By pairing the blush midi dress with nude pumps and a snakeskin crossbody purse, the attention really remains on this midi number and the beautiful look of the lace! This would be a great option for a wedding guest dress this spring and also would be easy to dress down by throwing a moto or jean jacket over.
