It’s hard to believe that it’s nearly summer. For a lot of people, Memorial Day—Monday, May 27—marks the unofficial start of summer. Everyone’s firing up the grill, the pools are open, and weekends are reserved for the occasional escapade. 

It’s also the season of the summery dress. These are light, airy, and colorful dresses you can wear to work, backyard barbecues, or extended weekends out of town. 

Looking for ideas to complete your early summer look? From colorful plus, regular, and petite dresses for work to fun cocktail dresses for summer escapes, here are a few ways you can add a touch of summer to your wardrobe. 

Late spring and early summer are brimming with color. From blossoming flowers to lush green trees to gorgeous sunsets, color is all around us. And you can celebrate many of those colors with your wardrobe. 

Add a zest of color to your weekly dress lineup. You can find plus, regular, and petite work dresses in stunning greens, blues, pinks, and reds. You can easily liven up your summer work attire with bright solids, eye-catching patterns, and, of course, vibrant florals.  

While we may be talking about dresses ideal for a professional setting, you can wear these dresses whenever and wherever. The colors of summer are certainly not reserved for the workday! Faux wrap dresses, cardigan dresses, and sheath dresses are perfect for the office—and the weekend! 

Speaking of the weekend, you may have your fair share of backyard barbecues, birthday parties, weddings, and personal getaways on the horizon. They can be an eclectic mix of super casual to more formal. 

No matter the occasion, be ready for the weekend with colorful and stylish dresses. One dress that can bridge the gap between casual and formal occasions is the faux wrap dress. Like any dress, it’s available in different styles, including sleeved, sleeveless, floral, solid, and more. 

The faux wrap dress can also be styled in so many ways so it’s worth it to have a few in different colors—maybe one in a solid color, one in a bright floral, and one more subdued. You can be ready for any summer weekend with a faux wrap dress! 

While we have already touched on floral dresses, they are very much on people’s minds this season. You can find florals in everything from professional work dresses to fun cocktail apparel. Florals can add a dynamic touch to any wardrobe. They can be fun and elegant at the same time.  

Florals can be subtle in style and color or more vibrant and eye catching. You might select a subtle pale pink floral faux wrap dress for that wedding in June. Then, for your beach vacation in July, you might take along a more energetic fuchsia cocktail dress. 

With so many different floral patterns and colors to choose from, it’s incredibly easy to have fun with floral dresses. You can find the florals you love most, and you can dress them up however you want. You can bring the floral fun every weekend!
