No matter what the season, dresses are my most worn clothing in my closet. Whether it’s dressed casually for the weekends or dressed up for the work week, my closet is filled with just about every type of dress. Lately, there have been so many fabulous dresses to love, I decided an entire post should be devoted to this article of clothing! I’ve been even more dressed obsessed than usual lately. Just wait for Monday’s post! Here are 3 must-have dresses for summer.

Eyelet Ruffle Top
Is there anything more spring-like than white eyelet? From dresses to tops, it’s definitely a style for the warmer months. I bought this white eyelet ruffle top almost two months ago and finally had the chance to wear it this past weekend.

Happy Wednesday, friends! I think we can all agree that these “spring” temperatures are not cutting it — we have gone from the 80s over the weekend to a freeze warning last night! Since spring has barely arrived in some parts of the country, it’s ironic that there are a ton of spring pieces already on sale! We might as well take advantage of these sales and stock our closets full of pretty spring and summer pieces. We will be able to wear them eventually! Here are a few of my favorite spring styles currently on sale…
Tropical-Inspired Spring Dress
While spring has arrived in many places, spring decided to take a break over the weekend here in D.C. Temperatures were in the 30s Sunday morning! However, I think most places are suffering from strange spring temperatures. Even in the south! I wore this fun, tropical-inspired spring dress is Austin this past weekend. It was hot and in the high 80s on Friday and made for the perfect brightly colored piece for the warm, spring temperatures. Maybe Texas can send us some of those temperatures!
Spring Dresses Under $150
Yesterday was the first day of spring, but you wouldn’t know it here in the D.C. area! We made it through February with about 2 inches of snow but we have already made up for it today. Even with the snowy forecast, it will not stop me from dreaming of warmer temperatures and spring dresses. I have been on a serious hunt for dresses lately. Between weddings, work and vacation, I have been looking for quite a few styles. Can you believe I have had virtually no luck in this dress quest?! Maybe it’s too early in the season, but finding cute and affordable spring dresses has been a challenge. However, I have managed to pull together the twelve best spring dresses under $150 that I have found. From mini, midi and maxi dresses to dresses with cute details like a tie front, here are my favorite affordable spring dresses…
The Top That I Own in Four Colors
Excuse me as IĀ attemptĀ to dress for the weather over here. One day I am wearing sweaters and the next it’s full out spring. However, I won’t complain because I am excited to wear spring pieces, even if it’s only once a week. If I had to pick a spring uniform to wear for casual days and even date nights, this would be it. I have raved about this top on countless occasions (most recently in yesterday’s post!) but I think I have found my favorite color yet. You know you have a problem when you own the same shirt in four different colors, but this pink ruffle top takes the cake when it comes to the best shade.
Floral Embroidered Dress
A floral embroidered dress. Is there anything better? When I spotted this dress a few weeks ago, I knew it was the perfect party dress to take to New York for Fashion Week.
Burgundy Dress and Chambray Shirt
One of my favorite ways to style a sleeveless dress for a different look is pairing it with a chambray shirt. Especially this time of year, a chambray shirt allows you to still mix a little summer into a fall look. The colors in this burgundy midi dress are so vibrant, I couldn’t wait until the temperatures cooled down to share it with you! Not to worry, I will be styling it again for fall. But in the meantime, this burgundy dress and chambray shirt make for the perfect summer to fall transitional look.
