11 Graduation Dresses Perfect For The Class Of 2019

Godisable Jacob

Finding a fantastic graduation dress is crucial as you will probably end up having pictures in that dress for the rest of forever. Most websites only sort their dresses into party dresses and casual dresses which doesn't really help your cause. The dress needs to be not too fancy, but not too formal, conservative enough to be with family, but still revealing enough that you won't bake in the sun during the ceremony. Here are some of my picks for great grad dresses hopefully something here will inspire you.

Ava Polka Dot Cowl Neck Slip Dress

Price: $69

This dress from Urban Outfitters is such a great material for a hot Spring/Summer day. The length is super classy too which gives it more of an adult vibe.

Thalia Sodi Off-The-Shoulder Bodycon Dress

Price: $45

If your graduation errs on the formal side this dress could be perfect. The off the shoulder neckline makes it sexy while the slightly longer length balances it out.

Darling Dearest Blue and White Floral Print Swing Dress

Price: $49

The flowy shape of this dress will keep you cool on a hot day. The print is dainty and floral, but still adult enough for graduation.

Price: $158

The mesh panel with floral embroidery is so pretty on this dress and unique.

C/meo Collective Elate Balloon Sleeve Mini Dress

Price: $180

Okay, so this dress is a little more on the pricey side, but it's just so pretty! The long sleeves keep it classy and are perfect for a day that would be on the cooler side.

Donna Ricco Ruffled-Hem Sheath Dress

Price: $99

I love the ruffled detail on this dress, it makes a simple dress just a little bit different and fun.

Martini Mama White Crochet Midi Dress

Price: $68

I'm obsessed with this dress. The mesh paneling is super cute and I love the neckline on it.

Ruffle Cami Fit and Flare Dress

Price: $60

The slight flare on the bottom of this skirt is super in right now which makes this dress a perfect pick to be fashionable and appropriate.

UO La Petite Tie-Back Frock Mini Dress

Price: $59

This Urban Outfitters dress is a little more casual, so depending on your plans this dress could be perfect and springy.

Love Poem Blush Pink Lace Dress

Price: $64

This pink is still light enough to wear under a white gown, but the color is slightly more flattering than white. This dress comes in every color you could imagine too.

Ruffled Wrap Tie Square Neck Cami Dress

Price: $60

Wrap dresses are also super in right now, plus the cut makes it very light and breezy for a hot day.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

1. When you have to provide an "interesting fact" for your first day ice-breaker.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.

3. When you edit your friend's paper and they get an A.

4. When it's 2 AM and you remember you have a test tomorrow.

5. When you finish taking the test and you're pretty sure you failed...

6. ...but then you get the test back and somehow passed.

7. When you've been up for 12 hours straight writing a paper.

8. And then you manage to stay awake in class the next day.

9. When you have to butter up your professor for an extra credit opportunity.

10. When you're assigned a group project.

11. And your group-mates are trying to chat about life instead of the assignment.

12. When it's your last class of the day and you're about to go home.

13. But then you remember rent is due tonight and the anger comes back.
