The minute spring rolls around, my weekends fill up with every special occasion imaginable. Weddings, graduations, outdoor dinner parties—you name it, and it's on my calendar. Since these formal events require equally formal attire, it's safe to say that I've entered my classy era. I'm on the hunt for dresses that allow me to move gracefully and stand a little taller. (In my opinion, that's the true mark of a winning outfit.) Of course, Net-a-Porter was my first and only stop. The retailer's selection of special-occasion clothing and accessories radiates elegance and has something for every event whether I'm leaning floral and frilly or sleek and sophisticated. Here are the picks I'm currently eyeing.
