I was blessed to be able to go to two different Proms this past year as a junior in high school. Both of which I attended with my handsome boyfriend, Branson. We went to his prom in February, and my school’s prom in May. But busy life bumblebee over here waited until the last minute to go get a dress at a local department store. This caused so much stress for Branson and I, because we are a pretty cute couple and really wanted to match.
Here is a photo of us, with my department store dress, which I ended up liking and felt like a Princess, but will definitely do it differently from now on.
Department stores are a bit expensive, and through experience, I have found that different stores sell similar style dresses and some even the same. We can all imagine the feeling of going to a dance, and the first person you see is the one with the same dress as you. It is also really hard for me to find an appropriate modest dress, that I feel safe, secure, and confident wearing while having a great time dancing. I am also picky about color, length, and how it looks.
Senior year is coming up and I want to be able to show off my style and uniqueness without feeling exposed or not liking the way it fits. Other people may share the same problems as I do, so I want to share with you a website that I found, Aisle Style, that does exactly that, but without draining your wallet. I get to look ahead of time and make a decision and I put in my measurements, so I know my dress will fit perfectly when it arrives.
Aisle Style is a professional dress company located in the United Kingdom. It has been dressing women in 30 different countries since 1995. It’s their mission to make brides and young women feel confident and beautiful, but with two important factors, quality and affordability. Whether you are looking for elegance or simplicity, reserved or fashionable, Aisle Style dresses and gowns are fit for every age and style. They range all the way from majestic wedding gowns to beautiful little flower girls and prom dresses in between. As i was scrolling through, I realized that every dress was unique in it’s own way. There is a good variety of style, and many colors too. What amazed me the most was the prices! The prices are in euros so I calculated an €88 dress into $96.99. They were more modest and less expensive than my dress from the department store and there are endless colors and styles to choose from!

Awesome blog. You did a great job Samantha!
Thank you Mom and thank you for running me all over to find a dress, I am really excited about looking for my dress here next year.
Love this advice. I will save the information for my youngest granddaughter. One already attended her senior prom, but the other is just entering high school. I’ll have to bookmark so I don’t lose it. Thanks a lot for sharing.
I am so glad! Thank you and hope she enjoys prom when the time comes!
Absolutely gorgeous dresses. My daughter has a few years to go before prom but I will definitely keep them in mind for other special occasions we’ll be attending.
I agree!!! I will be sure to share my experience with them after I make my first purchase next year.
Wonderful post! I’m well out of prom dress shopping years, but I’m thrilled at their wide variety of cocktail, evening, and wedding gowns that don’t seem to break the bank! I also LOVE their search features. Thanks so much for directing me to this great tool. 🙂
