I Basically Live In Dresses, and These 30 Pretty Styles Are Already In My Cart
Is it just me, or are we all especially excited for spring and summer this year? I have always loved spring/summer fashion more than fall/winter fashion, so this is my time to shine. One of the main reasons is that it's finally warm enough to wear dresses on a daily basis. I have such a thing for dresses. They're easy to style and incredibly comfortable, and they make you look so put-together. Whether you're going into your office, planning a trip, going out on a weekend, or your wardrobe just needs a little pick-me-up, a new dress is always a great idea. Dresses are like my secret weapon. I think people assume that dressing up has to be uncomfortable, but let me debunk that right now.
There are certain dresses that are so comfortable they could double as nightgowns. Plus, they're extremely versatile. Since it's officially spring and the weather in New York is finally warm enough for me to bust out my dress collection, I thought, "Why not treat myself to a new sundress or two?" On my hunt for new dresses to add to my wardrobe, I found so many that I can't wait to wear. As I scrolled through Shopbop, Mango, and Reformation, I just kept thinking to myself, "How great would this look with sandals and a cocktail on a rooftop in Brooklyn?" and "I can't wait to wear this dress on a Saturday night out." I found 30 that are so good I'm actually dreaming about them. As someone who'd never gatekeep, especially when it comes to a great dress, I listed all 30 killer dresses for spring.
Keep scrolling to see which made the cut.
I wore this green dress to have rosé on my friend's rooftop and then to dinner, and it was a total hit. I'm also loving everything with fruit motifs for spring and summer. It's so fun.
This is the perfect summer minidress. I would wear this with sneakers for a Sunday out with my friends.
This is the perfect party dress for spring and summer. I saw someone wearing it on Instagram the other day, and it looks so good. I need one.
This shiny dress is stunning, perfect for a party or a night out.
This knitted minidress is so chic and gives such classic old-money vibes. I'd wear this to a fancy brunch or a daytime event.
How adorable is this tiered minidress? I would wear this to Central Park with my friends.
This is the kind of dress you can just throw on without thinking about it. It comes in a few colors, and I think I need them all.
I don't usually wear blue, but this dress makes me want to change that.
