11 Amazon dresses that look way more expensive than they are
These Amazon spring dresses are so affordable, you'll be doing a double take
Spring has officially sprung, and with sunny days becoming more frequent than rainy days, my thoughts have turned to overhauling my winter wardrobe and injecting some cute, spring dresses into it. The high street might seem the obvious place to turn for some new season dresses, but one place I've been shopping is Amazon - I know, I was surprised too.
Speedy delivery is always a bonus of Amazon, but one look at their thousands of dresses had me doing a deep-dive of its fashion. I've seen plenty of influencers wax lyrical about Amazon's dresses, and I wanted to take a look for myself. And as well as cheap or free delivery, and hassle-free returns, Amazon's cornered the market on affordable dresses that belie their thrifty price tag. Some of them look so expensive, you'll be doing triple takes.
