Do you know that feeling of having a date night planned with the girls and not knowing what to dress or even having a clue of what to buy? Yes, we all know that feeling.

In moments like these, all you need is to scroll down a few pictures to give you some ideas. The good news is that there’s a wide collection of affordable cocktail dresses for you to choose from. Scroll down for five inspiring celebrity style picks:

Well, if there’s one thing, we can all learn from Elizabeth Olsen, is that a true smile is the best accessory, and it works better than any make-up you put on. Now, style-wise, the magic here is the blush sparkling dress.

High Low Sleeveless Jacquard Blush Maxi Dress (£75.00)

As if the sequin embroidery and the cheery blush pink colour weren’t enough, this dress has a fantastic wide midi skirt with a high-low effect. This is a nice choice for bridesmaid dresses, wedding guest dresses or any special occasion.

 The v-neckline, sleeveless style, and spaghetti straps, combined with this unique skirt will grab anyone’s attention and cause quite an impression on the dancefloor! Do you really want to miss this opportunity?

If we are talking about going out with friends, a black dress is never going to let you down. This is a quite simple style by the American actress Sarah Baker, but such a pretty choice.

Downton Abbey Vintage Inspired Black Flapper Dress (£85.00)

A black dress is a must-have in any woman’s wardrobe – there’s no discussion about that. And when you’re buying plus size dresses, black is the most flattering colour and always very elegant.

This flapper dress will take you on a journey through the 1920s, now that the vintage-inspired clothing is so in. Hand-embellished with glass beads and sequins, scalloped hem and flutter sleeves – this dress is so lovely!

Here’s a minimal, almost casual, dress worn by the Bond Girl Ana de Armas. As we mentioned already, vintage dresses are trending right now, so elements like fringes will be very common in the Spring Summer 2022 collections.

White Fringe Flapper Dress (£135.00)

This dress is a great investment. It’s perfect for parties, balls, black-tie events, and special occasions. It is sweet and genuinely beautiful, with a glass beaded fringe at the bottom that will shine as you move and dance!

The illusion neckline and art deco pattern give this dress the perfect finish. Make sure you style it the right way to make the most out of this flapper dress – pearls, headbands, high heeled shoes with peep toes and silver jewellery will go well. 

Sparkling metallic silver with a waistband and a halter neck, that was the choice of Mila Kunis for a red carpet. And the reason why it’s here is that we’re going to discuss that colour.

Wrap Style Front Split Metallic Sequin Maxi - Silver (£63.00)

Four years ago, metallics were all over fashion boutiques and magazines, and now they’re becoming gradually more popular again. Don’t get behind! Keep yourself ahead of the trend.

From tops to trousers and dresses, metallic gold, silver or grey are stylish and stunning colours, just perfect for disco nights and parties. Keep that in mind the next time you go shopping, and make sure you have a wardrobe section with some of these shades.

And back to black. We’ll wrap up with another black dress, but very different from the previous one. See how you can steal this Naomi Campbell’s catwalk style.

Sequin and Mesh Embroidered Midi Black Dress (£79.00)

One thing is the pretty black dress, which doesn’t really need much to look gorgeous, but this is something else entirely. The bodycon style and rose gold sequin embroidery grant a hint of sophistication to this number.
