With limited options for how to spend the days (since it isn’t realistic or possible to explore places with the pandemic), I’ve found myself embarking on more outdoor adventures than ever lately. From picnics at the park and visiting animals at the zoo to hitting up every outdoor ice cream place in town, I’m constantly reaching for a lightweight cotton dress in order to stay cool and comfortable.
Why I love Casual Cotton Summer Dresses:
Most days, I watch my niece, so midi length dresses are ideal for achieving a classic look that’s also practical for chasing around a one-year-old. Running after her definitely gives me an extra workout! Breathable outfit options that soak up sweat have become even more important in my summer wardrobe. Plus, cotton pieces are easy to clean… which is another important factor when you’re around kids but want a cute outfit, haha!
The best cotton summer dresses are the ones with thoughtful details and versatile shapes. That’s what makes them so easy to dress up or down. The dress that I’m wearing in these photos could easily be styled with wedges (you can’t go wrong with a Castaner espadrille) or heeled sandals for less casual occasions. On the other hand, I love the laid back but put-together look that a simple pair of sneakers gives to one of my midi length casual cotton summer dresses, which is the type of outfit I’ve been opting for most often these days.
Sadly, the cheery Gal Meets Glam Peggy dress that I’m wearing in these photos is no longer available anywhere. However, I rounded up a number of casual cotton midi dresses that all feature breathable cotton fabric and feminine silhouettes.
