Best Dresses to Wear to Survive the Heat – 50 Is Not Old

This is so cutesleeveless dress? This dress will keep you cool and give off the look of either I'm ready for a pickleball game or I'm heading to the mall to do some damage. Lol! Guess which one I'm more likely to do.

The description says it's a swimsuit cover-up, which I guess you could do. But I think it's way too pretty to wear over a swimsuit. I love the navy with white trim; it looks classy and elegant. The dress is slightly too big for me, especially under the arms. I think I'm starting to see a trend with my casual wear from Lands End.

If you must wear a dress, choose a loose and flowy one! I love this floral version! It has a cute button-up bodice that would be super flattering and a ruffled skirt with a fun slit in the front. The sleeves are a nice length and the overall look is just soft and casual. It's made of lightweight rayon, so it would be perfect for warmer weather. This would be so cute to wear to a wedding.

Loose doesn't have to mean baggy. I think that's adorable! This dress is made from crisp cotton and features a handy removable belt. Define your waist, girls! This would be super cute for an outdoor sporting event, BBQ, or lunch with friends. You know I love dresses with POCKETS! Plus, it's machine washable for easy care.

I'm not gonna lie, I love this caftan! You've seen me share this dress a lot, and that's because I wear it A LOT! It's comfy and perfect for wearing around the house instead of as pajamas. But I honestly think it looks amazing when dressed up with jewelry, heels, and a cute clutch. Of course, you can also wear it to the beach as a swimsuit cover-up, so this thing is so cute! Funny thing is, Joe loves it too.

One of the reasons I love dresses so much is because they are so comfortable andthis oneis so comfy! It's loose and not tight but still cute and feminine. I originally ordered this dress in a size M but it was a little too tight in the bust. The size L fits me much better. It comes in so many prints and colors that I had a hard time choosing which one to add to my cart! It will look so cute under a denim jacket or cardigan with ankle boots this fall.

Someone asked me the other day if blue was my favorite color. I wear a lot of blue, but I'm not sure if it's my favorite color. Blue suits me because it goes well with my eyes, but I also like a lot of colors. Color aside, look at the beautiful printon this dress!!! I wore this dress undera jacketwhich will be perfect for spring or fall, but will look just as good without the blazer for the rest of the warm summer months.

This turquoise ruffle dress is perfect for summer because it allows for good air circulation. I like to add a light cardigan to my dresses because it can be chilly in the mornings and evenings, and restaurants are always freezing.

Remember the house dresses our grandmothers used to wear? I think this is a more chic version of them, lol. Loose ruffled dresses are perfect for staying cool and stylish this summer! Made from 100% cotton, it’s lightweight, breathable and super comfy. It comes in knee-length and ankle-length styles, has short sleeves, a crew neck and handy side pockets – my favourite.

This style is perfect for any occasion, from leisurely strolls on the beach to sunny afternoon picnics. You can pair it with sandals and a hat for a chic and casual look. Keep in mind that it runs a little smaller, so you may want to size up for a looser fit.

I think this is so cute! There are so many adorable details: the split v-neck, the flirty sleeves, and of course, the ruffled hem. Did I mention it has POCKETS? It comes in over 25 colors, but I think this teal is gorgeous. It would look great with a cute pair of sandals, but you could also get away with pairing it with tennis shoes.

If the above robe was too simple, elevate it with this flutter-sleeved version. It's made very similarly, but the waist, sleeves, and crew neckline take it to the next level. It's available in over ten different versions, both solid and printed.

The smocked bodice and elastic high waist create a flattering fit. With side pockets and the option to wear the sleeves on or off the shoulders, this dress can be worn in a variety of ways, from beach trips to special events. Plus, it's easy to care for: just toss it in the washing machine or hand wash in cold water!

What do you think of this gauze version from JJill? I love the royal blue color and the classic utility short look. Did you know that the soft flare of an A-line dress can make your waist appear smaller and give your overall silhouette a more defined shape? Sign me up! The fabric is light and airy, and the side slits give you even more airflow.

This dress is actually two pieces. You can wear it with the sleeveless top or take it off and be super cool with spaghetti straps. If you click the link and watch the video you'll see that it can even be worn with just one strap if you're feeling spicy! It's 100% linen and comes in sizes XS-4X.

Finally, how fresh and cool is this dress? It's amazing how small alterations can transform a casual dress into a chic one. Patchwork isn't something I usually associate with chic, but it works here. Pair it with cute brown sandals and throw on a light cardigan or gauzy button-down shirt if you want to cover up your arms. It's also available in petite and plus sizes!
