Have you heard of Modcloth? If not, it’s one of my new favorite online retailers. The prices can be a bit pricey, but there is no better place to find vintage-inspired clothing and accessories. Just look at those shoes! They are to die for, no?

Modcloth is perfect if you like feminine, vintage clothing, and if you need a cocktail or party dress, you should definitely check them out.

Have you heard of Aqua?

Jackie has champagne tastes on a student budget. That’s why she keeps a close eye on celebrity trends, then scours fast fashion outlets to recreate the look for less.

Aqua, offered exclusively by Bloomingdale’s, is an adorable little line of designer-inspired styles offered for less than $100. The sheer number of cocktail dresses will overwhelm you, and there are dozens of styles to choose from.

The cute numbers above include the Halter Tube Dress, the Belted Party Dress and the Eyelet Ruffle Tube Dress.
