Summer time is quickly approaching and having the perfect cocktail or evening gown for a wedding, birthday party, gala, or charity event is a must.

Here are my favorite gowns that I have selected as must haves for any season. Many of the selections I personally own in my wardrobe collection.

My personal aesthetic style is sleek, classy, and timeless. I love vintage gowns and my personal philosophy is ten years from now your gown should still look like perfection on you.

Take a peek at the gowns and let me know what you think.

This dress I wore to my grandmother’s 80th birthday was such a hit. I actually saw Beyonce in a similar dress a few months earlier and I instantly loved her dress in particularly the color green. I received so many compliments. This dress is also perfect for the holidays or New Years Eve.

I fell in love with this dress the moment I saw it. It was sold out for months. I plan to renew my vowels in this dress. I have tried it on and the dress is simple gorgeous. Perfect for the summer

The dress above I purchased a few months ago and wore it to a Gala. It was a hit. This dress is slimming, sexy, great material, and is timeless.

If you are going to a specific event and just need a dress for the night. My recommendation is to rent a dress. Rent the Runway have name brand gowns to rent for reasonable prices.

This dress is a perfect cocktail dress. The color is marigold. The dress is perfect for a wedding or cocktail hour.
