SUMMER DRESSES UNDER $100: 3 Trends to Try

I polled readers via Instagram on what your summer wardrobe was missing and an overwhelming amount said that your closet was lacking dresses for this season. Below I’ve highlighted three summer trends—Bold Florals, Animal Print, and Neon Brights—with all 35+ dress options being under $100! Happy shopping!

OUTFIT DETAILS

Dress: Alexis via Rent the Runway. Bag: Rebecca Minkoff via The Real Real. Shoes: Vaneli.

Retro Romance

Bold Floral Dress | Coral Raffia Earrings | Beaded Wood Handbag | Yellow Slingback Heels | 70’s Tortoise Butterfly Sunnies (only $15!)

I love the idea of adding a nostalgic touch to an otherwise summer staple of a bold floral dress. If your dress is particularly chock full of color, pick one or two hues to compliment your look when adding accessories.

MORE BOLD FLORALS

Tiger Lily

Tiger Print Dress (under $50!) | Tropical Transparent Clutch | Raffia Drop Earrings | Straw Boater Hat (my favorite) | Espadrille Wedges (under $40!)

We all know leopard is basically a neutral, but when editing this post I found a lot more diversity in animal print! I love the idea of a tiger print or even zebra instead of leopard this summer. If planning a look for a night out, swap out the jungle green and raffia accents for neon ones!

MORE ANIMAL PRINT

Packs a Punch

Striped Belted Minidress | Lime Strappy Sandals | Oversized Blue Sunnies (only $16!) | Lightning Bolt Earrings | Lime Transparent Tote

When compiling trends to try instead of sequins for NYE, neon was high on my list. I’ve decided to highlight that trend again for a season that’s perfect for bright and colorful. I love the idea of playing with transparent color—feels like a pool float! In addition, try pairing your neon brights to the fruit earring trend. Lemon earrings + lime minidress, strawberry studs + gingham cobalt wrapdress… possibilities are infinite!
