I aim to please! Today I have a HUGE spring and summer dress guide for you. I've got casual to fancy and everything in between. All the dresses here are under $250 with most being under $150 and plenty under $50 even. I categorized the dresses into "casual", "dressy" and "casual/dressy" to make shopping for a specific event or type of look easier.
Let's talk "casual" dresses first. These are the dresses for off-duty hours, mom-ing it hard and weekends. These are the dresses you throw on Saturday morning to enjoy a summer day at the park or running errands and all of it in between. You can easily layer them over swimsuits for beach or pool trips or wear them to casual backyard bbqs and ice cream runs. This striped maxi dress with the wrap front is super cute and mom friendly. I personally love a t-shirt dress so I am instantly drawn to this striped t-shirt dress or this v-neck t-shirt dress. This embroidered dress is SO cute and this smocked floral dress is just darling and so mom-friendly.
Next up I pulled together plenty of "dressy" dresses. These dresses are perfect for any summer weddings you may have, a more formal graduation party, a rehearsal dinner or even a baby or bridal shower. I have some more bitted options like this deep v-neck option, this one shoulder ruffle top or this fitted lace dress. If you wanted something a little flowy-er I love this blue floral option, this pink floral tie-waist dress is just stunning and this maxi gown would be flattering on so many body types. If you like a little more arm coverage this pale purple lace dress, this off the shoulder floral or this black off the shoulder top all offer some sleeves without being too much fabric or too warm. Really ANY of these dresses is a total winner!
Next I pulled together the dresses that are both a little dressy and a little casual. These are dresses that could be worn to the office, worn to more casual weddings (think an outdoor or beach wedding), could be dressed up with the right jewelry or dressed down with a denim jacket. For a casual outdoor wedding or even a graduation party I love this blue and white striped maxi dress or this floral wrap dress dress. This tie waist shirt dress or this black belted option could both be worn to the office in the warmer months. A simple wrap dress like this cream mini dot dress or this black button front maxi dress would be great to wear to a bridal shower or a rehearsal dinner or just for date night with a denim jacket. The options with these dresses are MANY!
