I’ve been on the hunt for spring and summer dresses over the last few weeks and I’ve been buying them left and right, hoping the forecast follows suit. I seem to live in jeans all winter long so when warmer weather rolls around, I’m all about the dresses! Skirts, too, but nothing beats a feminine or flirty dress. I really didn’t wear that many dresses with tights this winter and I truly think it comes down to me being the BIGGEST baby when it comes to being cold. Honestly, if I could change one thing about my body, I really think it would be my tolerance for cold temps. LOL On second thought, that’s actually a complete lie, but wouldn’t that be such a game changer?!
This striped dress with nautical vibes was one of my favorites from last summer and it made it through my recent closet clean out, so I’ll surely be repeating this outfit a few times this coming season! You really can’t go wrong with striped dresses in the spring and summer… Especially when they’re blue and white. 💙

Hi Jessica, Have you tried fleece-lined tights? I live in Boston and they get me through the winter. I have a few pairs of black ones, and I always layer them under other thinner tights, like opaque black, charcoal grey, or navy. Just search ‘fleece tights’ on Amazon and there are lots of cheap options! I also have a pair from Nordstrom Rack.
This dress is gorgeous! I love the stripes!
