while summer is technically weeks away, here in georgia things are heating up. when that happens, it’s always fun to pop a dress on. i don’t know why, but for years i’ve reserved dresses for special occasions and hot summer days. that might change this year as i’m loving the casual ease of a dress. it’s a no fuss no muss kind of style and the only thing i have to worry about are what accessories to wear!
today, i have on a blue seersucker shirtdress that looks perfect with denim block sandals. then i polished if off with a straw clutch, a pair of earrings, and charm bracelet. didn’t i tell you it was easy! the dress is available at Christopher and Banks who is celebrating a special event this Saturday, April 29th called You and Her. yes, this weekend Christopher and Banks is thanking the women in your life that make a difference whether she’s a teacher, mom, nurse sister or serves in the military. shop with girlfriends for special savings, a complimentary flower, and sweet treats! happy shopping ladies.

So fresh and summery. I have a similar blue/white striped seersucker cotton dress from LL Bean Signature–I got it a number of years ago, and I always receive compliments on it. It’s the simplest dress but so comfortable (and it’s got pockets!) and it just looks pulled together, much like this.
This one is much like a J Crew dress I saw, and this is certainly a much better price point. You look great!
i am jealous! any dress with pockets is a winner for certain.

I bought 2 fit and flare summer dresses from Talbots last year and I love them both. I was thinking the same thing, that they are so comfy I should wear them on other days than Sunday or a special occasion because they can be pretty casual depending on how you accessorize. Are you changing your hair style?
i am changing my hair style, sharon! the summer months here in athens are hot and humid which makes my hair go wild. so i’m going with the flow and chopping it into layers and letting it flip to its hearts content.

Can’t beat blue seersucker for summer!
