Is it weird for an almost 30-year-old to reference TikTok in her headlines? Well, too bad. I might not have the social media prowess of an 18-year-old, but I do know a good quip when I hear one. You already know the viral sound that everyone is making TikToks to. Scarlet Envy from RuPaul's Drag Race says, "Is it me? Am I the drama? I don't think I'm the drama. Maybe I am."
Well, when it comes to fashion, there's no harm in being the center of attention. I handpicked 38 dresses below that simply scream d-r-a-m-a thanks to their sultry silhouettes, bright colors, and eye-catching prints. Scroll down to shop my favorite statement dresses.
