Summer Dresses for Every Occasion

**This post is sponsored by Nordstrom Rack and Shopstyle. Thanks for supporting the retailers that support this site.

The requests for summer dresses have been rolling in. It seems like everyone is trying to make up for lost time, and there are all sorts of events happening this summer. Weddings, graduation parties, showers, and vacations abound.

And even if your social calendar is a little slow at the moment, who says you need an occasion to wear a dress this summer? I think we’ve all had enough of the athleisure for a while. Women all over the country are trading in their joggers for casual dresses, even if they’re just running to the grocery store.

If you’re in need of a closet refresh and are looking for a few new frocks, I’ve teamed up with Nordstrom Rack to round up a bunch of summer dresses for every occasion at prices that won’t break the budget.

  1. Thanks for putting this post together for us! Since I don’t need to add anything to my closet, I don’t have anything in particular that I’d like to see from the Nordstrom brands. Wait, how about women’s pajamas! While I do not pay a lot for my pajamas, I like options. And if they have handbags, that’s something I always like to add to my closet. It’s rainy here today, as well. Have a productive day!

  2. I do wear a lot of dresses to work, even in the summer. I’ll go though this post and order a few. Question-I was watching an older video of how you organize your purse. Do you have any idea where the small makeup/organizers can be purchased that you use to compartmentalize and organize your purse?

  3. I notice most of these are solids in blue, red, black and pink. Are those the the ‘in’ colors for this season? Are prints out?

    1. Bold colors are definitely trending, but I wouldn’t say that prints are out. I just happened to find more solids, or maybe I gravitate to them without realizing it. 🙂

  4. I’d like to see affordable, neutral (nude) not Taupe color crossbody handbags that will at least fit wallet, sunglasses and small sunscreen. :). I have a nude backpack one I use all the time but it’s too big for times I just want to carry something small and wear with a casual dress or nicer outfit. Cute dresses. I’m looking for casual tee shirt dresses to replace shorts but not rayon or spandex but cotton.

  5. Cute…yes done with the casual wear,,,love a casual dress knee length
    for church or errands.
    Is it just me but sometimes the longer ones look like nightgown lol
    Of course all look great on you and around your pool!
    Hv a great day beautiful here in Chicago!

  6. Definitely ready to trade in Joggers for dresses or more elevated, chic looks. Love these dresses esp the midi tank dresses and tshirt dress. Great for our hot weather up here in the 90s. Sorry, cant buy from your hyperlinks: Nordstrom Rack won’t ship to Canada. Will have To check our local Nordstrom Rack store.
