26 Longer Dresses Under $50 Reviewers Say They're "Obsessed" With

1. A ruffled floral maxi dress with the absolute cutest sleeves to add some extra flair to your look, even if you don't add any fun accessories, like a cute belt or statement necklace. But, like, those would *also* make the dress look so perfect.

2. A striped midi that'll be perfect for the last days of summer and to transition into your fall wardrobe. Can't you picture this with some cute tights and booties? I'm manifesting my PSL as I type. It also comes in solid colors!

3. A fun V-neck dress with pockets for when you love color so much, you just cannot decide which one to wear. Now you can wear them ~all~.

4. A chiffon maxi dress that'll leave everyone who sees it in tiers because of how beautiful it is. Get it? Tiers.

5. A high-low dress because sometimes you just want to show off a little bit of leg for some much-needed airflow, but not *too* much, ya know? We don't need a Marilyn Monroe moment. Or do we?

6. A romper disguised as a maxi for when you want all the benefits that come with wearing a fun, flowy dress but the security of wearing shorts underneath.

7. A ruffled, smocked bodice open-back stunner that just might be the only dress you'll be packing for your next vacation.

8. A long sleeve maxi to keep you toasty warm as the weather starts to cool off these next few weeks. Is it just me, or is fall and winter approaching *way* too fast?

9. A strappy casual dress that you can easily dress down with a denim jacket and flats or up with a gorgeous pair of pumps and a clutch to match.

10. A pleated midi dress with the neatest mesh detail at the bottom to add a bit of ~flair~ to your look without having to add any extra accessories.

11. A cold shoulder maxi dress that'll quickly become your DVD (designated vacation dress) because of how absolutely perfect it is for comfort (and style) during your trips.

12. A tie-strap dress so you can adjust the top to fit you and not have to deal with the dreaded *strap falling off your shoulder every ten seconds* trope.

13. A midi dress that is giving some seriously adorable ✨ cottage core ✨ vibes and I am HERE. FOR. IT.

14. A tiered maxi dress to wear on your next picnic with the boo, preferably in a nearby meadow where dandelions are blooming throughout.

15. A breezy midi dress that's perfect if you prefer a more minimal style and adding pieces to your wardrobe that are versatile! This dress can be worn on its own, with a chunky sweater on top, with a turtleneck underneath — you name it! It's a great basic!

16. A soft tie-dye maxi dress, because who said tie-dye had to look cheesy? Not me! I would never.

17. A ruffled flowy smocked-bust midi dress that's basically begging to be worn for all of your Instagram photoshoots because of how dang dreamy it is.

18. A button-up maxi dress so you can decide just how much cleavage you want to show. Button it up all the way for max security, but if you want to show off your cute bathing suit top underneath like the reviewer below, you can!

19. A cheery midi swing dress that comes in 37 (!!!) different colors and prints, so you can buy more than one and they'll look like completely different dresses!

20. A colorful print with a darling little tie-front to make your dress go from "meh" to "aww"!

21. A show-stopping slit dress that's almost guaranteed at least 16.5 double takes in one single commute. 👀

22. A chiffon dress practically designed to be worn on a breezy beach as you walk along the shoreline holding your shoes and living your best coastal life.

23. A loose sleeveless sundress for when you want to wear something that's both comfortable *and* adorable. It even has pockets!

24. An off-the-shoulder maxi that desperately wants your necklace to be the statement piece of your look by drawing attention upwards to your neck.

25. A ruffled sleeve maxi dress with absolutely gorgeous patterns, you'll feel like a total stunner in.

26. And finally, a gorgeous flowing maxi dress that'll most likely have people DM-ing you to find out where you got it. That's a secret you'll never tell. XOXO.

You, whenever anyone suggests you wear something other than a long, flowy dress:
