    30 Cute Summer Dresses For People Who Only Wear Black

    Because black is an all-year-round, 365 aesthetic.

    1. A swingy tank dress with cute criss-cross detailing that I see in your near future. Specifically, on you in two days after it arrives. It's so soft, flirty, and affordable...I can't think of any reasons NOT to treat yourself and buy it??

    2. A cute (pronounced "kyOOt" in my head) sunflower-embroidered dress with teensy pockets (you need your lip balm, after all) and a Peter Pan collar that'll be ready for all of the summer soirées that come your way. Who said black doesn't suit the season, darling??

    3. A woven bandeau dress with a bow in front for extra flair and a lil' peek-a-boo area that'll make this the perfect candidate for a classy or casual date. What a stunner you are!

    4. A scoop neck darling so dang comfy, you won't ever want to take it off! In fact, I have a solution for you: buy multiple backups or maybe, just maybe, venture into different colors or add a pattern. (I know, I know, it's just a suggestion!!)

    5. A ruffle-trimmed mini that'll be perfect for dancing the night away at a concert, block party, or chill summer wedding. Simple and cute is the name of the game!

    6. A billowy empire waist midi dress for a little bit more coverage, but not ~too much~ because hello, deep neckline and triple-tie back! Start practicing your sashaying!

    7. A sleeveless cocktail dress that'll be the epitome of elegance at any wedding or party you grace your presence with — and even though it appears form-fitting, there's plenty of wiggle room so you can eat many, many appetizers.

    8. A fitting but stretchy midi with adjustable crisscross back straps for a lewk that'll surely turn some heads and garner a endless stream of compliments. Sorry to all hosts in advance 'cause your outfit will be the talk of the party.

    9. A cold-shoulder ruffle midi that'll keep you cool and breezy with its silky material, even as you figuratively dial up the temperature with this hot, hot, hot number.

    10. A cute-with-a-hint-of-sexy tie-front dress that'll put a spin on all of your regular spaghetti strap numbers. You'll be the IRL version of the 😍 emoji whenever you catch yourself in a mirror, storefront window, etc. Go ahead, stop and stare!

    11. A sleeveless bodycon dress that'll be just as versatile as your sense of style. You can wear it to just about any occasion, plus it's super easy to layer under a jacket or cardigan if you want more coverage but still super stunning on its own. Proof below.

    12. A cold-shoulder maxi with fluttery sleeves, butter-soft jersey knit, POCKETS, and a darling self-tie scoop back you'll wear to sidewalk/patio brunch way too many times this summer — and that's totally ok! This dress exists at the intersection of comfiness and stylishness, so you'd be silly not to wear it all the time!

    13. A button-up bodycon dress that'll step up your everyday outfit without doing the most. Talk about a classic look to wear on repeat!

    14. A pockets-included tank dress to keep you cool, chic, and twirling all summer long. Plus, this is the perfect number to show off your gorgeous lacy bralettes from the low-cut sides!

    15. A flowy wrap midi crafted from Japanese GoWeave fabric, which is light, drapey, and wrinkle-resistant — so yeah, I think this bb is already on its way to earning top spot in your closet for those reasons alone! 👏👏👏

    16. A cute-as-a-button maxi dress for that "legs for days" factor and to properly acquaint your sun-deprived legs with some needed Vitamin D.

    17. A super affordable, casual high-neck midi for a fitted look that's not too snug, because what do we hate more than clingy/sticky clothes? Nothing.

    18. A smocked button-down midi that'll look positively ~thriving~ IRL and on Instagram when paired with a oversized straw hat and a berry picking farm in the background. And it has pockets!!

    19. A flirty one-shoulder cocktail dress with sturdier-than-expected material that'll hug big and small busts just right (aka you won't feel tight and squished). Cheers to looking classy and feeling comfortable!

    20. A casual scoop-neck tank dress so your arms and pits can roam free as can be on those humid-as-heck days!!! And it has a full, swingy skirt you'll want to spin and dance all day in, even if you're in the checkout line at your local grocery store.

    21. A darling bell-sleeved shift mini that'll be the very first thing you pack for your next vacation. It's just the right combination of breezy, beautiful, and cover-worthy!

    22. An overall-inspired sundress with pockets for all of the sunshine you'll collect while strolling over to the farmer's market on a lazy Sunday morning — just add sunnies, an empty tote bag, and strappy sandals for instant chicness!

    23. A gorgeous lacy, semi-sheer midi that'll make you feel like a ~starlet~ the moment you put it on. "Oh my stars!" your fans (friends) will say as you glide down the red carpet (the hallway).

    24. A cold-shoulder skater dress you needed yesterday — literally, because you spent 30 minutes trying to figure out what the heck to wear! This is your answer!

    25. An airy pleated trapeze dress that'll twirl perfectly to the symphony of happy summer sounds as you sashay down the boardwalk. And it has cute gold sequin trimming, because your clothes should shine as bright as you!

    26. A darlin' faux-wrap sundress with white contrast trim for an effortless chic getup that'll make you want to host a garden party ASAP.

    27. A chic blazer dress that'll be a surprisingly versatile closet staple for ya — it can be worn to work, a night out, and as a dress *or* long vest. And it has pockets to keep track of all your essentials, because you RUN this world.

    28. An off-the-shoulder lace shift dress with floral cutouts that'll probably make you fall in love with yourself, tbh, so this is your cue to take yourself on a cute summer date! The best kind of date!!

    29. A casual side-slit maxi dress for a quick n' easy "put-together" look when you'd much rather be lounging around in your PJs. Yeah, this dress is THAT soft and snug. But! It can be easily dressed up with snazzy accessories and shoes.

    30. An open-shoulder A-line number that'll attract lots of compliments, so just be prepared to say "thank you" over and over again. I know, it's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it!

    Aaaaand the Morticia Addams GIF you probably saw coming from a mile away:
