Nothing defines easy summer dressing quite like a slip dress. If putting together a cute outfit seems like too much to handle right now, slip dresses are the perfect answer. Styles range from nightgown-adjacent to wedding guest–worthy, so there's pretty much something for everyone. (I, for one, am quite partial to the ones I can also wear to bed.)
For some inspiration on the best slip dresses, I turned to some of Instagram's best-dressed ladies like Lucy Williams, Chrissy Rutherford, and Ali Tate Cutler. During the summer months, I love wearing slip dresses with cardigans to protect against chilly AC temperatures inside. Of course, sneakers and sandals are also great accompaniments for a slip dress. However you style it, it's safe to say you'll be super comfortable all day long. Scroll down to shop my favorites.
