Whether you're looking one for a gala or your daughter's looking for one for prom, finding an affordable formal dress in Boise is a nearly impossible task! 

Rewind back to January 2020 when we were still allowed to have large gathering in crowded venues. The Governor's Ball was quickly approaching and I kept prodding to husband to tell me weather or not we had plans to go. If we were, I needed at least a week's notice so I could rent a formal gown from Rent the Runway and get it delivered on time. He told me we weren't, so I didn't order one. Well, the night before the ball, he accepted an invitation for us from a friend and I stared at him like "what did you just do?!"

I didn't have a formal gown just laying around in the closet that I could pull out and wear, so I had to scramble Saturday morning to come up with something. That lead to an incredibly frustrating THREE hour long trip at Boise Town Square Mall. Just when I was about to give up, I found a dress in the petite's section at Dillard's that fit just right. What wasn't just right? The price tag. I shelled out almost $200 for a dress that I've never worn again.
