For reference on sizes, I’m almost 5’4″ and typically wear an XS or S in tops, a size 4 in bottoms, and a 26 in denim. TTS or sized up/down will be noted.
Summer is a season of warmth, sunshine, and relaxation. It’s also a time when we want to feel comfortable and stylish. One way to achieve both is by wearing summer dresses!
Summer dresses are a must-have in any woman’s wardrobe during this time of year. Not only do they keep us cool and comfortable in the heat, but they also add a touch of femininity and elegance to our look.
Whether you’re going to the beach, a picnic, or a summer wedding, there’s a summer dress for every occasion. So, why not embrace the season and elevate your summer style with a beautiful summer dress?
Below, find three of my personal favorites that I wore this week…

Flutter Sleeve Dress MAGGY LONDONShop now ›
why i’m wearing it
This color is gorgeous in person. It’s an A-line cut, which means it’s shaped like an A… smaller on top and wider at the bottom. That’s the style that most people can fit well and wear comfortably.
The center knot shapes the waist. The sleeves are long enough to cover the tops of your arms. This dress is light, yet heavy enough to keep from clinging. It’s LINED!
Dry clean it or machine wash. I’m wearing my typical size 4.
how to wear it
This dress can be cocktail appropriate with a strappy sandal or more casual with a block heel style or wedge.
Add a stitch in the bustline for modesty and wear it to work if you like. Church, a baby shower, wedding guest attire…wear it to all of these places!
Here’s a platform sandal I picked up recently and it’s REALLY easy on the feet, “match” everything and the price is unbeatable. They have memory foam.
Just add an earring for adornment and let your whittled waist steal the show.

Stripe Drop Waist Button Front Cotton Dress NORDSTROMShop now ›
why i’m wearing it
There’s not much that’s lighter and cooler in the summer sun than a white cotton dress. I’ve belted this one, worn it loose and breezy, with a dressy sandal and with a sneaker too. It’s meant to be relaxed and a bit roomy.
I’m wearing my typical small and it’s great. It’s only slightly see-through. I just wear a lightweight nude slip. I feel polished and pretty in this one. It’s selling out now, but available in a stripe as well.

A block heel sandal balanced my look. It’s easy to walk in and keeps the outfit dressy but comfortable. This leather slingback sandal has a 3″ heel, comes in 3 colors and has an adjustable velcro heel strap. It’s also on sale. Taking the outfit up a notch is this gorgeous faux pearl earring from Ettika.

why i’m wearing it
These perky little active dresses are having a moment. EVERYONE is wearing them. Run your errands or actually play a sport and look darn cute doing it.
Machine wash this dress… easy. The stretch fabric gives a nice shape and moves comfortably.
I’m wearing a small, true to size and it also comes in white.
how to wear it
I’ve already styled this piece with a jelly sandal and shared it so here’s another way-a clean simple low-cut white sneaker.
Folks, I live in my white leather Pumas. They are non-descript, affordable, stylish and have memory foam. The fact that they are low-cut and show one’s ankle keeps the leg looking slim. I cannot say enough about them.
Add a hoop and that’s about it. This is a sporty, casual look.
