Summer Dresses

Nothing is more summery than striped dresses and iced drinks from Starbucks.

The weather here has been so nice I decided to finally take advantage of it and grab a PTL from Starbucks and work outside a little bit. The sunshine and light breeze was the perfect way to get through a small project. 

Also, I bought this dress last summer during one of the online Lilly sales as something to wear over a bathing suit when heading to the beach. I had no idea it could be such a perfect casual dress to wear around town and out to grab pizza with some friends. I am so happy to finally be bare-legged this year.

When I ordered this dress this past winter, I was so happy to have a striped cover-up to take with me to the pool or the beach. I've been counting down the days until the weather gets warm enough to bust this guy out. I did pull the dress out for a poolside day in Florida a few months ago, but it just wasn't enough.

 Well, fast forward a few months, I can't wait another day for some time by the water to throw this dress on. I knew as soon as I saw the temperatures were going to be in the 90s this week, this dress had to come out of the closet. I used to think it was a little too casual for work, but with hot, hot weather and a colorful necklace, this dress got me to, from, and through work, without ever being too hot.

I have been a fan of Lilly dresses for awhile now, but this one is currently at the top of my list. The sleeves are so flattering and the material is incredibly soft and comfortable. While this exact dress is no longer available, they have many similar ones on their website. I may have to snag another before I convince myself to go on a spending freeze.
