The Little White Dress

If Summer 2020 had a signature look, it would be the little white dress.  So many retailers have produced the prettiest sundresses and nap dresses (the greatest name yet for any piece of apparel!), and the beauty is due to the clean color.  I added a few new white dresses to my closet this year, and each one has received a number of compliments for simplicity and style. 

The best part about a white dress is that you can find the design you like for a reasonable price. Online shopping makes it possible to look for higher end styles in lower price stores. I have had great luck with Zara, H&M, J Crew Factory, and of course, Target, which launched a beautiful collaboration this season. My favorite little white dress is a belted shirtdress in an eyelet fabric made by Lisa Marie Fernandez for Target. I call it my “picnic dress”, but it can be worn for so many other occasions.  

As we inch closer to Labor Day, I highly recommend shopping end-of-the-season sales to pick up white dresses in mini, midi, and maxi lengths. I prefer shorter dresses, but some of the most well-known fashion influencers are giving longer dresses the respect they deserve!
