I adore the neckline of this little black dress. It’s an a-line cut that is so easy to wear, and so flattering for many body types. And at $35, it’s such a great price. The fabric is ribbed and slightly on the thicker side so the dress doesn’t require any kind of shape-wear like some thinner dresses do.
Your summer plans may be a bit derailed, but after dressing up a little bit for an anniversary dinner at home with Justin, I’d like to gently remind you to pull a dress out of your closet every once in a while. It’s a nice change from loungewear, and if you are anything like me, your outfit can affect your mood.

no. one.    no. two.    no. three.    no. four.    no. five.    no. six.    no. seven.    no. eight. (I’m wearing this dress in the photos above) A few pretty shoe options for summer dresses are these heeled sandals by Sole Society. The Splendid Meli slide sandals are a little more low profile, but still simple enough to pair with nearly any summer dress. I still have and wear the Madewell Kiera block heel sandals that I bought a few summers ago. Target had a similar version as well with an ankle strap that was just as comfortable as the Madewell ones too.
You cannot beat a simple straw bag for summer, and something like this round straw bag could easily work with any of the dress options I shared above.
