Recently, three BuzzFeeders set out on a daunting mission: to buy ALL their looks for a coworker's destination wedding in Colombia from Amazon — with a budget of $100 per person. (And, obviously, succeed at looking super cute.) Here's how it turned out.

BuzzFeed

First up, outfits for welcome-party drinks!

BuzzFeed

Ella wanted something that exuded "vacation-beachy vibes," so she went with this comfy, swingy yellow dress with fun bell sleeves and a drop-waist.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "This dress is made of a knit cotton fabric, which I did not expect, but it is actually more comfortable and washable than I anticipated!" —Paige Beal

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in sizes XS-L and in yellow, green, black, navy, and burgundy).

Kelsey chose this lightweight striped number that's practically begging you to wear it on a boat.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I am typically a size 8 in dresses, bra size 34DDD —purchased this dress in a large. It perfect! I have a higher-than-normal waist and dresses usually fit me okay, but hit my waist a bit low. This dress hits exactly where it should. The fabric will not wrinkle. I purchased this for a trip to Europe. I wore it to work today and received four compliments!! Needless to say, I just purchased the dress in red also." —Molly

Get it from Amazon for $28.59 (available in sizes S-2XL and in 12 colors/patterns).

Plus she snagged this super-cute bikini for under $15 (!).

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "The bathing suit looked exactly like the picture. The quality is great, and the straps are removable. I am 128 lbs , 5'4, 32C, and the medium was perfect." —Emily

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in sizes S-2XL and in 22 colors/patterns).

Caitlin, who said she was "trying to be more daring," bought this gorgeous, flowy red halter dress (and bonus: rocked it braless).

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "This dress looked and felt great! I'm curvy, 5'9", 36C/D, 200 lbs. The dress showed off my assets but not those other things ;) Plus I went braless and it never felt like I'd pop out of the low-cut front." —Katy Baringer

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes S-2XL and in 11 colors/patterns).

Next up: beach-day looks!

BuzzFeed

Ella wanted a dress that would give her Insta a "pop of color," and scored pockets to boot with this v. comfy plum-hued maxi dress.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I loved this dress. It was the perfect length. I am 5’4", 170 pounds and purchased a large. I don’t like dresses this style to be tight and it wasn’t. I wore chunky 4-inch heels and the length was still great. People at the party I attended complemented the dress all day and mistook it for a designer 😉 The only downfall I saw was that the spandex material (this is not a cotton dress) absolutely did not whisk away water. It snowed a little that day and it took a few hours for the few snow drops that came in contact with the dress to dry. Just something to keep in mind." —Amanda Navaro

Get it from Amazon for $17.59+ (available in sizes XS-2XL and in 16 colors/patterns).

Kelsey was looking for something light and full-length that would provide her with come protection from the sun and got this pretty patterned caftan cover-up that did the trick, accessorized with an adorable straw hat.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to, amzn.to

Promising review: (caftan) "If you are looking for that perfect beachy piece, then this IS it. I have worn it locally with a jean jacket and got tons of compliments. I also plan on wearing it when I go on vacation for lunches and shopping. It is so darling." —Amazon Customer

Promising review (hat): "I bought this for a trip and it is really cute — great material and it fits comfortably." —Ruki Anand

Get the dress from Amazon for $19.99 (available in one size that fits up to 8/10 and in six colors/patterns) and the hat for $13.49 (available in 18 colors).

AND she bought a second swimsuit to pair with this look: a simple, solid-colored high-waisted bikini.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "Product couldn’t be better or more flattering for someone with a curvy body. I ordered a medium in army green. I’m 5’4", 118 lbs., and wear a 32DD bra. The band below my bust fits perfectly. It kind of smushes my breasts together, but that happens to me with any swimsuit/bra without underwire. The leg holes are tight enough without your legs feeling like sausages. Overall I’m extremely pleased. I’ve bought more expensive swimsuits that you can’t differentiate between the quality of this one." —Ava

Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes S-2XL and in 10 colors).

Caitlin tried two looks — this super-soft crochet cover-up that she described as "very loose but oddly flattering"...

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I honestly was not expecting this product to be this beautiful! I bought this on a whim and when it arrived I was SO surprised how great the quality is. I’m 5’1”, about 125 lbs., and it fits me perfect! I’m OBSESSED. The material is soooo soft and I’m so happy with it! 100% recommend it to everyone." —Marisa Pagliari

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in one size that fits S-L and in 12 colors).

...and this sexy lingerie-esque cover-up that she felt was a better choice for lounging at the pool than for beachgoing.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "Absolutely love this cover-up! It's pretty and sexy! I actually wore it over a dress one day and got tons of compliments!" —Nadine

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes XS-2XL) and in 13 colors/styles.

Then it was time for outfits for a sightseeing day of ~leisure~.

BuzzFeed

Ella got this super-chic geometric-print dress that "feels like quality" and that she'd happily wear to work too.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I got so many compliments on this dress at work! I’m 5’10, 185 lbs., 36DD, ordered a large, fit perfectly in all the right areas. I like where the ribbon sits like a loose empire belt. Material is thin, so I bought the light gray Spanx Amazon recommended and I’m very glad I did, because those were just as great as the dress!" —Sarah Bell

Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in XS-XL and in five patterns).

Kelsey was a little worried about wearing this cover-up that seemed totally opaque in photos but was quite sheer IRL and had major side slits — but it actually ended up being perfect for walking around hot and sunny Cartagena during the day.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I bought this for my Bahamas honeymoon and let me just say, I have never felt more comfortable in a cover-up. When you get out of the water and you put on a cover-up, it is usually sticking to you and holds sand, too hot, etc. This was the perfect weight, just enough 'cover-up' and very, very cute. I am 5'9" and this came just past my thighs." —Melodie Joy

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in S-M and L-2XL and in 16 colors/styles).

Caitlin scored this cute halter-neck maxi dress that was the perfect length and featured a flattering belted waist.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "Love this dress! The fabric is light, airy, and so comfortable. The slit on the leg looks great and also helps when taking long strides (with other maxis I sometimes feel like there isn't enough space to walk, if that makes sense) I'm 5'8" and 175 lbs. I was a little nervous ordering a L since I usually wear an XL, but other reviews said it ran big, so i took a chance. I'm glad i did because it fit perfectly. Got stopped and asked where i got the dress several times. Very happy with my purchase!" —Andrea

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes XS-2XL and in two patterns).

And finally, the reception looks themselves:

BuzzFeed

Ella took a risk — and lucked out with this elegant AF, "10 out of 10" romper dress that, tbh, pretty much stole the show.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I loved this outfit. I wore it to an outdoor wedding. I was very worried I would be dying of heat stroke because it was 95 degrees and humid that week, and while I was hot, the sheer sleeves and open slit of this maxi romper helped cool me down. And it didn't show my sweat at all — big plus for me because I tend to sweat a lot. I loved the comfort of a romper with the look of a dress. Some girls complained about the shorts part of the romper not fitting around their bottom but I did not have that problem; I have a small butt, but not totally flat. Highly recommend!" —Mel Ann

Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in seven prints).

Unfortunately, Kelsey's floral-print dress wasn't quite wedding-appropriate, though it could make for a cute beach cover-up.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "Size runs a tad small. I am 5'5", 155 lbs., got a large, I am keeping it (not gonna exchange for an XL), but definitely cannot dry it — it's a wash-and-hang item. I will use it as a wear-around-the-house cute and super-comfy nightgown or sit-by-the-pool kind of item." —arebedeel

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in sizes S-XL and in nine patterns).

But Caitlin's vintage-style rockabilly dress was a hit — complete with sweetheart neckline and adorable lace-up-back detailing.

BuzzFeed, amzn.to

Promising review: "I ordered two of these dresses (black with skulls and white with cherries) a few weeks ago and loved them. They were made of a satin-like material, which was not what I was expecting, but they fit great and looked lovely, so I had no complaints. I ordered two more (navy with white dots and black with red dots) and they just arrived. They're made of a cotton material, which is closer to what I was expecting with my first order, they fit exactly like the first two, and they look fantastic! I'm happy with all my dresses, but if you're looking for all of these to be the same fabric you might be upset. I am a size 20 US and I ordered size 3X. And I highly recommend investing in a good petticoat to give these dresses some fluff!" —Kelly L

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in 44 patterns).

In total, Ella's looks rang up to $100 even, Caitlin spent $100.25, and Kelsey went just a bit over budget, with a grand total of $112. Check out the full video here!
