There’s nothing easier than a machine washable cotton dress you can just throw on and feel great in, especially when it’s in the perfect color. I really need to invest in more olive green.

Then there’s dresses with pockets…That’s an easy win in every woman’s book. This maroon day dress is perfect for work, brunch, church, showers…The occasions are endless.

Maxi dresses aren’t typically my go to style, but I was drawn to this delicate design in the prettiest shade of purple. It’s made of linen, machine washable and has adjustable straps. Seeing the photos of it on me has made me realize that sometimes trying something different pays off.

Lastly, this calming earth toned linen dress is perfect for the warm temps, but I can see this dress easily transitioning into fall with some tall boots and layers.

SUMMER SHIFT DRESSES

To keep my wardrobe fresh, each season I add a few truly special pieces to my wardrobe. I've always adored the simplicity of a nice shift dress, but with summer fast approaching I opted for a one with a little more flair. The moment I laid eyes on this Alice + Olivia southwestern shift dress from Neiman Marcus, I knew I had to have it. I love how classic and comfy the shape of this dress is, and the subtle flare of the bell sleeves just elevates the style. The white is perfect for hot summer days, but the bold geometric print adds some intrigue and makes it stand out from any other dress I own. I'm not usually one to wear neon, but there's just the right amount of tasteful lime green on this dress to give it a nice bright pop of color without being overpowering.

 To shop this look for yourself, head to Neiman Marcus or browse the similar dresses below.
