Parents if you have a teenager in high school, you will quickly realize that it is very expensive for your child to attend all of the school sponsored events throughout the year. Most kids enjoy going to football games, homecoming dances, several other special occasion dances throughout the year, band or other club banquets, senior prom, and graduation. As you can see these expenses can quickly add up, especially, if you factor in the following costs: the cost of the attire, accessories, flower bouquet, boutonniere, professional hair styles, jewelry, make up, shoes, tickets, and transportation costs to attend each event.
My daughter has a band banquet to attend in a few months and I typically like to start shopping early so that I have plenty of time to search for great deals and bargains. I stumbled across DressFirst.com and found a great selection of dresses. In fact, my daughter got excited when she saw me looking at dresses online. She was excited that I let her pick out a few of her favorite styles.
Check out the cute dresses that my daughter picked out:
I think my daughter likes blue. While she was browsing through the dresses, I would point out a dress that I thought was cute and she would immediately say “no way mom or I don’t like that color“. At first she didn’t realize that she could hand select the color of dress that she liked and once I showed her she thought it was cool that she could pick the color she liked best. Most of the dresses come in a wide variety of colors to choose from so that your daughter can choose the color, style, and dress of her choice.
When your daughter finds the perfect dress to wear, chances are she will want matching shoes, jewelry, and a handbag to complete her outfit. DressFirst.com also carries a wide variety of accessories, purses, shoes, and more.
DressFirst.com also carries dresses for every occasion:
- Prom Dresses

I love that you can even refine your search so that you can find exactly what type of dress that you are looking for without having to browse their entire inventory of dresses. So if your daughter has a certain style of dress, she can narrow down her selection to choose from the following categories: hemline, neckline, embellishments, fabric, backstyle, straps, sleeves, color, and my favorite by price. They have thousands of dresses to choose from and they are affordable.
Before you order a dress online from DressFirst.com, please click on the size chart before ordering. I highly recommend that you have a professional take accurate measurements so that you don’t accidentally order the wrong size. The dress sizes differ from traditional sizes so don’t order your normal size. In fact, each dress is custom made after you place your order. It is best to order your dress roughly 6 to 8 weeks prior to the occasion, to ensure that you have your dress before the big day. Ordering it early will also give you plenty of time to return it or have it altered if there is an problem with the dress that you ordered. You must contact DressFirst.com within 7 days of receiving your dress, if there is a problem. I love that they allow you to order custom sizes and additions to your dress. For example, if you want to add straps to your dress, at DressFirst.com you will be able to do so for a nominal fee.
So check out DressFirst.com before you buy a special occasion dress.
