Recently, one of our readers (Kelly Ward - she does photography and is amazing - check her out on Facebook) asked to find a cap sleeve maxi dress with an empire waist. Even though it sounds easy enough to find, it took me forever to find one that wouldn't cost my entire life-savings. One great thing about this dress (other than the fact that it's gorgeous) is that the fabric - viscose, the most common form of rayon - is great for warm weather. So bring on that sun! No seriously, please bring on the sun.

This dress has a modern, sophisticated feel to it. It's also a Rayon/Polyester/Spandex blend, which means it's great for warm weather (if we ever get any), and is super durable (so it will last for years). The neutral color also means you can change your accessories and shoes to match your mood/occasion. Happy styling!

Yesstyle is one of my favorite online stores for two reasons: They have a ton of chiffon clothing (always flattering), and they have 5-10 different pictures of each piece of clothing. This makes it possible to see the clothing while the model is sitting, standing, etc, which is so important when buying something online!

I know I've mentioned before that I'm absolutely obsessed with lace, but I'm obsessed with lace! I've never heard of this designer before, but this dress is absolutely elegant - and white looks so good on our newly tanned skin (being summer and all). Also, it's lined, so no worries about your undies peaking through.

Dress of the Day

I saw someone in Nordstrom not too long ago with a casual black maxi dress, and have been searching for one ever since. It looked so comfortable and elegant at once, and I must have it! I finally found a dress that comes close to what I saw - and what do you know, it's totally doable.

This dress is from Express (love that store), and is made of Rayon and Spandex, which will keep you cool in the summer time. I also love the rouching on the sleeves, such a nice, feminine touch. Best of all - it's on sale! Less than $50. Get it. Now.

One thing I miss about Utah is Dillard's. They always have such a wide selection for every type of lifestyle, which is amazing, because most stores definitely don't do that. This dress is the perfect example! It's so feminine, and is so summery, AND is so modest.

The only thing this dress needs is a belt to define your waist, which I included (from Dillard's also).

The dress below is fabulous for tucking anything you're uncomfortable about, OR creating curves where there are none! Anthropologie cannot be beat for their quality and style. Their fabrics are super soft, and keep their color forever. This dress also comes in Navy, for all you winters out there.

If you haven't been to Etsy.com yet, you NEED to check it out! You can find everything from bows, to head bands, to dresses, to anything else crafty. It's AMAZING.

Summer Time Dilemma

Who doesn't love summer??? Summer dresses make the season, but it's REALLY hard to find one with SLEEVES (and one that covers my lady parts).

Found this great number at Macy's:
