Sweet Summer Dresses to Wear All Season Long—Did We Mention They’re Affordable?

Sweet Summer Dresses to Wear All Season Long—Did We Mention They’re Affordable?

This summer’s easiest and most covetable dresses feel like a steal.

Summer’s heating up! (Well, almost.) Memorial Day will arrive sooner than you think, and with temperatures steadily on the rise, the time to shop for easy sweet summer dresses is now. After months of casual stay-at-home attire (shout out to our most loyal sweatpants and pajamas), the need for easy, stylish, single-item outfits is more essential than ever.

We’re most excited by the ones that show a little skin, like a puff sleeve mini or an open-back halter knit-both will have you more than ready for reemergence. And there are a handful of other exciting dress trends to look forward to wearing this season: colorful crocheted knits, printed frocks in standout brights, and eclectic prints should you want to make a statement. You also need to ready yourself for beach days and wedding season. For those, consider a nightgown-inspired day dress, a floaty floral frock, an essential all-white dress, or a good old fashion sundress. Picking up a few of the best summer dresses to live in all season long. The greatest part? They all clock in at $300 or less.



Dainty Day Dresses


A simple sundress is one of the most versatile pieces of the season. You can just as easily wear one as a beach cover-up as you could to a wedding (so long as you have the right accessories). If you pick a good one, the very same dress can be worn on weekend neighborhood strolls, park picnics, or even going out for a cocktail or spritz. Airy and light, a dainty day dress will be the hero piece in your summer wardrobe.



Hello, Legs


After a year of seeing our family, friends, and colleagues, exclusively from the waist up, it’s about time we gave our legs a chance to be seen, and the best way to do just that this summer is with a heightened hemline. You can and should take these mini but mighty options for a spin this season-after all, micro mini silhouettes were one of the standout trends from the spring collections. Take your pick between tiered baby dolls, smocked puff sleeve fit and flares, and backless halternecks.



Everyday Exuberance


Another spring runway trend this season is fantastical fashion, which brings bright colors and eccentric prints to everyday clothing. It’s only fitting we have fun frocks for a summer that will hopefully celebrate possibilities of a post-pandemic life. No matter the silhouette, striking over-the-top prints, and bold saturated colors feel just right for right now.



Summer Whites


A simple white dress might not seem like much, but the perfect one can be a cure-all for summer style problems. Not only are they appropriate for just about every summer occasion, these romantic ruched, tiered, ruffle sleeve versions have been dubbed as summer’s unofficial uniform. From mini to midi dresses, these white day dresses allow for endless accessorizing options. Just swap your footwear, and top it off with a summer bag of your choosing, and your white dress will feel like new every time.



Crafty and Crocheted


With the past year spent mostly virtually, clothing with tactility and visible craftsmanship has been more delightful than ever. Dresses you can touch and feel-whether it’s a colorful crocheted knit, or a sundress with 3D floral appliques, or a split fabric tank dress with a bit of fringe–these textured dresses are totally swoon-worthy for summer 2021.



Work From Home (and Beyond)


How to feel polished for important Zoom meetings and stay cool in the home office? A collared or crisp shirt dress or soft yet clean short sleeve t-shirt dress will be sure to get the job done. Plus, these styles don’t look overly professional if you feel like taking one for a mid-afternoon stroll, work break, or as a casual dress option for the weekends too.



Reemergence Ready


We started to see the bodycon dress earlier this past fall, and summer’s versions are more appealing than ever. In soft, second-skin ribbed knits or stretchy jerseys, these dresses comfortably hug the body. For a subtly sexy summer dress, consider one with a side or back cut out or dainty straps and low backs. But rest assured, thanks to their midi lengths, these dresses won’t ever feel overly revealing. With an early-aughts vibe, these going-out dresses deserve to be taken out for all of your hot summer nights.
