Dress (under $30), Sandals (similar here and here)

We just returned home from a wonderful week in California, enjoying sunny days and gorgeous settings, culminating with our friends beautiful wedding. The whole time I was there I wore loose, comfortable dresses in breathable fabrics, reminded of how much I always love the slightly casual vibe of the west coast. I brought this tunic-style shirt dress, made of lightweight gauzy cotton that is a perfect example, with a relaxed, comfortable fit. I wore it both as a dress, and as an easy slip-on swimsuit cover. Whether you will be traveling or staying at home, a shirt dress is one piece you will want to include in your summer wardrobe planning. See below for a variety of shirtdress options I’m loving right now.

Embroidered Floral Shirt Dress

This shirtdress has a fun, slightly flared hem and is made of a wonderful, cool organic-cotton blend for hot summer days.

Ruffle-Collar Shirt Dress

A tiny blue and white pattern and embroidery and lace details give this maxi dress a vintage charm.

Satin Shirt Dress

Organic silk-satin and small gold buttons elevate the look of this tunic-style shirtdress.
