Around this time each year there are SO many formal parties, galas, shows and events that give the best reason for dressing up! I think a standard rule is that you should always have sequins on hand, I would consider It a closet staple. Apart from the holidays I always find myself pulling for these nicer pieces for events or nice date nights that come up. In an effort to keep this affordable (because it’s so easy to do so) I have rounded up my favorite formalwear for less than $100!

When It comes to what shoes to pair with such statement pieces, I always opt for a sleek heel. This is my favorite low-key heel option and can be worn throughout the year whenever you need a good basic pump! Here are a few under $100 clutch options that are SO chic as well!
