Summer is heating up, and it is HOT out here in the district, y’all! And when it’s this kind of weather, it’s so much easier to just throw one thing on. As soon as summer hits, I’m always living in my dresses to stay both cool and stylish! And you know that I like to keep your outfits on point no matter the season. So let me show you some summer dresses for the Polished Woman that you’re going to love!
Whether you’re looking to stay on trend this summer in the office, at a tropical resort, or on a dinner date by the water – there is a seasonally appropriate dress for every occasion and dress code! It’s no secret that I’m a big believer in always having versatile neutrals, but the summer always makes me crave an extra pop of color in my day-to-day outfit choices – and because I’m all about giving you options, I say – why not go for both!? Keep scrolling to see my picks for easy-to-wear, on-trend dresses. Happy shopping!

My favorite casual dresses come in midi and max lengths – and they come in all kinds of cuts that are flattering for any body type! If you prefer a more conservative look, these lengths are perfect. But you can also opt for a more form-fitting pick if that’s your style! Try a kaftan or a shirtdress if there are areas of your body you’d rather not draw attention to, or pick one with a belt if you’d like to flatter your waist! These are perfect with sandals for a casual look at any time of day or night.
2. Office-Friendly Dresses
The best bet for a great office-friendly dress for summer is an elevated pick that hits your knees or below! Stand out with a less-than-basic neckline and a body-flattering silhouette that’s still conservative enough to be in your office dress code. Throw on a heel and you’ll be feeling confident as you run meetings all summer long!
3. Dresses for a Night Out
Three little words for you here: go for it. This THE season to rock patterns and colors. Don’t be afraid of a dress with a little bit of a sheer element, or a cutout that you wouldn’t usually go for. Have a margarita and throw on one of these picks with any kind of summer shoe, and you’re guaranteed to have an amazing night out!
I can’t wait to see how you style these – tag me on IG @polishedimage if you snag one of these picks!
