27 Cheery Summer Dresses That Make Me Smile Just Looking At Them

Dresses and summer go together like PB&J. Even though I'm lucky enough to wear dresses year-round in Southern California, the warm months are when my collection really has time to shine. The only downside is that the market is absolutely inundated with summer dresses so it can be hard to sort through the huge selection. Have no fear—that's where I come in.

If you could see my Instagram saved folder or my Pinterest boards, you'd see a slew of Instagram-worthy dresses begging to be added to my cart. There are some Bridgerton-inspired pieces and others that would look more at home in Austin Powers. There are also plenty of special details like bows, puff sleeves, and strappy ties. Scroll down to shop my favorite summer dresses right now.
