How to Wear Colorful Striped Dresses for Summer
Happy Tuesday, ladies! With Summer in full swing and the 4th right around the corner, I'm looking forward to fireworks. And what better way to really get in the mood than with some colorful striped dresses. (Hello, seersucker!)
It's no secret that I'm loving dresses this summer. So many to choose from. Different styles; silhouettes; colors; and patterns. From shift dresses to side-sleeved, I'm loving them all really. Today, I'm featuring a long-sleeved, seersucker shirtdress from Lands’ End---a retailer that I love but don't feature as often on the blog.
So get in the holiday spirit with me today, and let me know your 4th plans in the comments below!

Colorful Striped Dresses For Summer
1. Long Sleeve Seersucker Button Front Shirtdress
(Land's End)
Today's featured item is a 3-color shirtdress from Lands’ End that comes in regular, petite, and plus. Definitely on the patriotic-side of things, this dress would definitely be a great option for the holiday weekend. And I'm partnering with Lands' End on Instagram this month and they're offering my readers 50% off your purchase with code HAPPY through 7.31.
I've paired the dress with a pair of white Alibi Sandals available at Tuckernuck. I've featured these sandals extensively this Spring & Summer. They're super comfy; and I keep going back to them.

Sandals are an obvious choice to pair with a dress. Whether you prefer heels or not; strappy or slide; they just work with dresses. Easy peasy.
But if you've been paying attention to the alternate boards I've put up this season, I'm really loving the dress/sneaker pairing for a casual and practical look. I'm absolutely loving Talbots' sneaker options this season, especially their collaboration with Keds. But also check out Nordstrom's selection of Kate Spade sneakers.

Seersucker & Striped Dresses
In Case You Missed It

Beth,
You look great! That dress bowls me over. I’m gonna try to shop it through your site (a first for me).
Thanks!
Quick question, Beth: Is the size true on the Lands End seersucker dress? Would you suggest sizing up? (Before I push that button)
Hi Carolina Girl! Thanks for shopping through one of my links. I so appreciate your support! I am wearing a M which fits a 10-12 so I did size up as I wear a size 8 and could have worn a S. I’m tall so I find if I do size up with dresses it gives me a smidge more length. Hope this helps!
Yes, it does … I will size up too ~ here goes!
Also add code HAPPY for 50% off your purchase through 7/31!
I have not shopped Lands’ End in FOREVER. This dress has me thinking I should check them out again! I love the options boards too. Thank you!
Lands’ End has some great selections! And the BEST swimsuits!
I vowed I wasn’t going to buy any more clothes but I had to have that dress. It will be perfect with a patchwork Coach bag I’ve had forever. They didn’t have XL in regular so I ordered petite. Hope it isn’t too short. With code CABIN I got 70% off What a deal! I look better without the belt so will use it to trim my hat!
That dress is very flattering on you…..and a perfect length
I shop from land send before they are very good, but I never seen so cute dress like this before, very good deal.
Thank you
I love Lands End!! Thanks for the 50% off coupon!!
