Memorial Day is right around the corner, and that means that it’s time to shed those layers of wool and fleece and get out your flippy-flops and floppy hat! We have been keeping an eye out for trends that will take you from your first beachside barbecue through the end of the summer.

Maxi Dress

Of course, the maxi dress itself is an old favorite. Like Old Faithful, you can count on it time after time to deliver. But this year, why not trade in your black maxi for something in a bright electric shade? We love this electric blue maxi dress from Von Vonni.

Playful Jumper

With Chanel’s staunch refusal to compromise one bit on its traditional philosophy of preppy, pretty sophistication, you can be sure other designers will follow suit and carry over ‘ladylike’ looks into their summer collections. Stay ahead of the pack with this adorable Jumper with Button Details from Beny & Hizzin. Pair it with Oxfords or pointy flats for a seaside tea party.

Shirt Dress

Shirt dresses are going to be huge this summer. Airy, light, and effortlessly chic, this is a wardrobe essential to beat the summer heat. For a boho look, try pairing this item with tan gladiator sandals and fringed bag or with slouchy ankle boots and a floppy hat. Add one of our feather earrings to complete your ensemble

Denim Dress

It’s easy to see in the industry’s return to loose-fitting styles and “pajama wear” that comfort is king this season. Maybe it’s no surprise, then, that denim is slated to be a huge presence this summer; its easy, comfortable style is what designers are trying to return to for casual daywear. To get the look, try this Denim Ruffle Sundress by airweddingdress. So easy to throw in an overnight, this look will work as well at the beach as at a bar – just don a pair of pretty ballet flats and voila! Instant style.

Monochromatic Print

Another double-duty piece, this Casual Striped Dress by Nicole Miller is both comfortable and classy. A must-have for summer, the ruching makes for a fun but flattering look that works well no matter the circumstance. Whether you’re throwing on a pair of ballet flats for a stroll along the boardwalk, layering it under a trench for a stylish, worry-free outfit during those surprise summer thunderstorms, or pairing itwith high heels or wedges while sipping on a brightly-colored cocktail, this dress is perfect for all occasions.
