The Perfect Summertime Dress for Any Occasion

Finding a dress that is great for both day and night is a little hard to do, but I have done it. While on a shopping trip on my most recent vacation in South Florida I stumbled across the dress below in a store window and had to have it. I was in love with the beautiful design, beading, but more importantly the cut-outs on the shoulders.

The dress is so versatile for a day look I love to accessorize with a large brim hat, small crossbody purse, and a sandal or slip-on. You are ready for any daytime activity that comes your way, shopping with friends, lunch with the family or even exploring a great local attraction. We went on a great family outing to Gumbo Limbo Nature Center and the dress was the perfect option for the day. The material is light and keeps you cool even in the hot days of South Florida. The length and sleeves also protected my skin from too much sun exposure. 

Let's talk about a night look for this dress, a few accessories really pump this look up. On that very same shopping trip, I found an amazing pair of Sam Edelman black lace-up heels. The block heel and woven lace up detail were the perfect complements along with a black leather jacket and a thin black belt, my nighttime look was complete. We went out of an amazing night of dinner, drinks, and dancing. My feet were comfortable all night and my look was on point.
