Graduation Dress for $100 or Less

Your graduation is one of the most important occasions you will ever experience. It is a day to celebrate all your hard work and accomplishments, a day to reflect all the late night study sessions and deadlines you had to meet, a day to laugh about the crazy drunken nights you had with some of the most amazing people you have encountered throughout your years at school, and  a day that you can reflect back and confidently say, "I worked my ass off, and I deserve this diploma in my hand!"

Whether you're graduating from high school or college, this big day is a memorable one that will be photographed by many, and shared with your children and grandchildren for years to come. Underneath that cap and gown, you want to be sure you wear a dress that will make you shine...afterall, you deserve it! I know I do!

I personally never thought the day would come where I could say, "I'm graduating from college!" I didn't even plan on going to college when I graduated from high school. It's been a long road traveled since then. I have slacked off, partied hard, changed my major multiple times, transfered to 3 different schools, dropped out, re-enrolled, and finally finished what I started! Ten years after I graduated from high school, I can proudly say that I have something that nobody can take away from me...a Bachelors Degree from Sacred Heart University!!! I could not be more proud of the struggle I have gone through to bring me to this point!

So with that being said, I know my usual features are items for $50 + under, but to hell with that! I'm raising the bar for this extremely important occasion, and stepping outside my budget all while still remaining savvy. Here are some of my favorite dresses to wear to the Class of 2012 Commencement for $100 or less!
