White Hot Summer Dress

This past weekend was a scorcher.  From here on out, I think it’s safe to say jeans are out, save for a few chilly evenings.  Instead, my go-to everyday look will consist of one of two things: denim cutoffs or dresses.

Since I’m still working back towards my pre-pregnancy weight, my normal supply of denim cutoffs is currently low.  Thank goodness for easy, breezy dresses.

I’ve always loved the straightforwardness of a dress.  It’s truly one of the easiest wardrobe items because it’s just one thing.  You don’t need to match a top and bottom or worry about mixing and matching proportions: it’s all right there for you.

As I begin to prepare for NYFW (yes, my prep is done WAY in advance), I’ll let you in on a little secret.  For the F/W shows in September, dresses are the best choice you can make for the above reasons.  If you look back at my archives, you’ll see a pattern – dresses in September and statement coats in February.  Sticking to this simple yet stylish formula never fails me.

So why would summertime be any different?

I picked up this white hot summer dress in the Need Supply sale.  Since I’ve bought it, it’s gone down even more and is currently only $23!  Stocked in all sizes and super flattering to all body types thanks to its A-line silhouette, you definitely want to jump on this deal.

Paired with a classic circle bag, this look screams summer favorite.  For daytime, I’m going to pair it with flat sandals and swap out the belt for a colorful silk scarf.  It will definitely be on heavy rotation this summer.  Not only is it cute and comfortable, but it’s machine washable.  Now that’s what I call a white hot summer dress.
