There's no category of fashion I love more than going-out ensembles. From dressed-up jeans to minidresses and glitter galore, it brings me joy to see everyone pull out all the stops for a night out. As going out becomes a thing again in certain places, I am ready to see people—and myself—in something that isn't loungewear. We've already discussed fun shoes and outfits for a night out, but today, we're discussing dresses because there's nothing like putting on the perfect dress and living your best life.
Keep scrolling to shop the best going-out dresses to reemerge into society with. It was almost hard to not keep on going with this list because it seems like the market is just as ready as me for you to go out again.
