Your Summer Staple: 5 Ways to Wear a Shirt Dress
It’s here – the summer staple that we all need to get right into our wardrobes: The Shirt Dress! Easy to wear to almost every summer occasion we might have from graduations to engagement parties and even to picnics in the park, this dress is equal parts dressy as it is laid back.
Why do we like it? That’s easy, there’s no need to think of what matches the top or bottom, because it’s an effortless dress! It can be dressed up with wedges or dressed down with flats or sandals! The material for most shirt dresses is light weight, which is exactly what you want when you’ll be spending your days outside. For styling ideas, it’s just as versatile as trends like puff sleeves or even cropped pants through winter that transition across seasons.
