Dresses are the best easy outfit formula for spring and summer, and every year, there are a ton of pretty, new styles to choose from. One of my go-to outlets for flouncy, floral dresses is Free People. The brand always has a selection of casual daytime dresses, more elevated occasion dresses, and a variety of playful hues that are guaranteed to liven up your closet.
I wear my dresses with everything from sneakers and sandals to heels and flats, so versatility is key for me when shopping for dresses. Some of this season’s upcoming trends include boho-inspired looks, drop-waist dresses, and lace details. Check out my top 38 picks from Free People below to freshen up your dress wardrobe. Whether it's a slinky slip, a lacy midi, or a voluminous mini, you'll find it all at your fingertips.
