1. A chiffon party dress if you want to elevate your style game while still feeling easy, breezy, and beautiful as this baby is *super* breathable.
2. A gorgeously layered swing dress that'll make you want to run barefoot through the woods like a happy little forest creature. Seriously, this beautiful dress is a warm-weather fairy tale dream.

4. A versatile T-shirt dress you can easily dress up or down, depending on what you're up to that day. Wear with high-heeled boots and chunky jewelry for an outdoor concert or add a light jacket on chillier evenings.
5. An airy patchwork mini dress that'll have you longing to wear it while spinning in circles around on the sands of a beautiful beach. Oh, and did I mention that it comes with handy adjustable strings?
6. A casual flowy tunic dress to wear while strolling along the boardwalk, sipping wine on a rooftop, or simply sitting outside and enjoying the sun's lazy descent at dusk.
7. A stylish, office-appropriate balloon-sleeve midi dress (with pockets!) because even though it's getting toasty outside, that doesn't mean you shouldn't always be as comfy, cool, and chic as humanly possible.
8. A ruched mini dress which I personally own in multiple prints and always get *tons* of compliments on. It's flirty, flowy, and tons of fun, plus it looks great with everything from high heels to high-top sneakers.

11. A polka dot cap-sleeve dress to really round out your wardrobe this spring and summer, especially if your dress selection has been a little spotty (puns very much intended).
12. A belted denim shirt dress that's a little bit country, a little bit rock 'n' roll, and a whole LOTTA boss babe.
13. A playful sleeveless midi-dress you'll want to romp around in all day and night, plus the wide array of quirky prints it comes in are so much fun you'll be tempted to buy 'em all.
14. A stunning button-down ruched dress sure to add a ~spring~ in your step and a ray of sunshine to your day even if it's cloudy or rainy outside.
15. A V-neck wrap dress that'll have all of your friends *begging* to know which boutique you snagged it from. Wear it with bold sunglasses and a big floppy hat for an instant confidence boost.
16. A sophisticated mock neck long-sleeve dress if you're in the mood to cover up a little yet still show off your stunning figure. Add a waist belt for a little extra style oomph.
17. A whimsical chiffon midi dress perfect for all your upcoming bridal or baby showers, brunch dates, family photo shoots, tea parties...really, anything that deserves a little sweet n' fanciful flair. 🌸
18. An embroidery shift dress to truly impress everyone around you with your laid-back '60s sense of style.

20. A lovely peasant chiffon dress so you can fully tap into the easy-going, eazy-breezy spirit of the season (in ultimate style, of course).
21. A trendy geometric tunic dress which looks like resort wear but is great for a plethora of activities that don't just involve the beach and pool, like brunches, nice dinners al fresco, and even lounging around on the patio at sunset with a glass of wine and a good book.
22. A short-sleeve maxi dress practically made for days spent out in the sunshine, strolling around a beautiful botanical garden or enjoying an outdoor BBQ. Oh yeah, and did I mention the pockets??
23. Or! A flowy maxi dress with tied straps, because you want something comfy and chic to dress in when it's hot outside. It's available in pretty patterns or solid colors, so you might as well buy multiples for spring and summer.
