12 White Summer Dresses

Later this week I’ll be sharing my top ten summer wardrobe essentials, but I felt like one of them deserved its own spotlight: the white summer dress! Flirty, casual, and easy, I love a flowy summer dress. I spent a couple of hours handpicking favorites on the plane to Austin to visit my sister over Memorial Day weekend, and this is what I found. Let me know which of the 12 is your favorite in the comments! Xo!

This flirty mini is under $50! Throw it on with sandals or heeled sandals. Add a hair scarf for a little feminine detail and to show off the neckline.

This one’s in my cart! I love a square neckline—I think it makes the décolleté look so pretty! This one’s also under $100.

When I saw that one of my all-time favorite PJ companies, Lake Pajamas, released a dress, I had to include it. Their materials feel like butter against your skin. Lounge in it around the house or pair with sandals out and about!

One of the splurge dresses on this list, but a must see. I can vouch for the quality of Staud’s bags, and their apparel has been on my wishlist for awhile! The smocked bodice will flatter your waistline.

Another affordable (under $100) midi with feminine details. Don’t miss the low cut + bow detail on the back of this one!

This dress in biscotti is also on my wishlist. I reach for dresses like this when I’m not wanting a body-hugging feel but still want to look put together. Bonus: It has pockets!

This is very similar to the low back midi above but has embroidery (broderie) for a slightly more garden party vibe. A great price ($99) if that’s your thing!

This dress is on its way to my doorstep, and I can’t wait to share it with you in the Shop! I think the neckline lends itself to dressy occasions, like date night or a shower, but it could also be dressed down with sandals.

Are these white dresses starting to run together yet?! Had to throw this unique option in there to break it up—it has floral appliqués, adjustable shoulder ties, and is lined.

This splurge dress is in my closet (last seen here), and when I saw they brought it back, I had to share it. It’s very cool (100% linen) and the silhouette is second to none. Keep in mind that it is slightly sheer in direct sun, but I wear nude undergarments and feel covered.

This dress is so affordable and perfect for a summer event or wedding (it also comes in pale yellow). It should touch just to the floor if you want to wear it casually with sandals, but I’d add dressy sandals, jewelry, and call it a day!

My sister got me hooked on Doen dresses. Let me tell you, my budget is mad, but they do not disappoint. They’re romantic, Californian, and carefree, and every design is unique. Don’t miss the front paneling on this one!
