My must-have summer dresses are the Eyelet Dress, Floral Dress, and Maxi Dress. With these 3 kinds of dresses, I assure you Summer will be fun, refreshing, and stylish.
Of course we don’t have to shop at high-end store to get these dresses. Stores like Forever21, Target, Wet Seal, Charlotte Russe, Dillard’s, Old Navy, TJMaxx, Marshalls, Overstock, just to name a few will provide us with a vast array of eyelets, florals and maxis without having to spend too much. Let me show some summer dresses for less that I hope you’d like.

Spring and Summer are slowly coming upon us. Are you jumping up and down like me? I would do cart wheels too but my cheerleading days are over.
I spied a few tops and tunics from Forever21 a few days ago that I wouldn’t mind wearing with jeans, shorts, or skirts.
Jeweled Butterfly Slub Top, $17.80. It’s not surprising that I like this tops if you consider my love for anything that has to do with butterflies. This top would look nice with denims shorts, mini-skirts, or jeans.
Splatter Racerback Tunic, $17.80. I love the edgy look from the gray …read more

Well, I could always it any day . But yes, it would’ve been perfect in the Virginia Beach. Or anywhere, with a wedge. Available in varied sizes so get yours now .

What really caught my attention when I saw this strapless floral print dress is that it looks just like a dress I already own. Except mine has spaghetti straps. The print is exactly the same. But I bought mine from Fashion Bug. I’m looking for a picture from my archives file but it’s taking me so long. I’ll edit this post later once I find it or take a picture of the dress instead. OK later. Oh wait, it’s $27.80 from Forever21.

What attracted me to this crochet trim tie neck dress at first are the floral print and daffodil color. Then I saw the surplice neckline, smocked waist and crochet hem trim and I fell in love . Such a pretty sundress to wear when it’s like 100° outside, isn’t it? It’s only $15 at WetSeal. In all sizes too. Woohooo!
I’ll wear this with a cork wedge by the way. The yellow color and floral print give that nature effect so a cork wedge would be a perfect compliment.

While I’m not much for tie dye prints, I’m drooling over this aqua & brown tie dye print tube maxi dress from Forever21. It’s been a while since I sported a boho-chic look. And this maxi dress just made me think of that. A simple pair of gladiator flats or flip flops and you’re good. I might even use a scarf as a head band to my big head to go all out. Or maybe not…LOL. $27.80

I love this color for a refreshing summer look. Hopefully your complexion works with the color. Lemon or yellow color, as pretty as they are doesn’t work in all skin complexions, contrary to what other people say. I wish it does. But it doesn’t. Anyhoooo here’s an under $100 summer look for yah. Just a simple lemon-lime and black combo .
Lemon Chiffon Mesh Front Dress, $28.50 (M, L)
Black Gladiator Wedge, $13.99
Multi Bead cord necklace, $8
Beaded teardrop earrings, $4.80

Another bargain find from Goody’s is this Duck Head & Jeans Co. V-Neck brown dress. I figured it would be a nice dress to wear when we visit some Aquarium museum near Virginia Beach as part of our vacation next month. The picture doesn’t do this dress justice, sorry. V-Neck and ruching empire waist are pretty much the staple details in my wardrobe if you haven’t noticed . It used to be $40 but I only paid $13.97. Woohooo!
Since it’s brown, I’m also looking forward to wearing this in the Fall season. With my boots .
