1. A '90s-tastic mesh floral midi dress with an asymmetrical hem and ruched bust, so you can feel nostalgic and basically like a magical fairy princess, while still keeping cool. 🧚
2. A satin floral jacquard strapless midi dress because WHAT?! Look at that design!! You'll sparkle in the sunshine and look like you just walked off a runway. Plus, you won't have to constantly be fanning yourself the whole day (this is perfect for looooooong weddings).
