Créme de la Créme | A Roundup of Perfect Casual Dresses for Summer and How to Style Them

Créme de la Créme | A Roundup of Perfect Casual Dresses for Summer and How to Style Them

Happy Sunday guys!

One of my favorite things to wear in the warmer months is a dress.  And not just any dress, but a casual dress, usually made of soft & flowy or t-shirt material.  Loose, comfy, cool, and easy, how could you not love them!?

They can be dressed up a bit, for a date or day on the town: just throw on some block heeled sandals or mules, fun jewelry and add a cute clutch.  Or, they can worn casually for errands or shopping: add a cute pair of sneakers, a few delicate pieces of jewelry, and a bucket bag or tote.

The one I’m currently wearing is from H&M, and it’s sooo comfy and flattering. I love the rolled sleeve detail and color!  Olive looks so good on a tan!  Also… it’s just under $25.  (And comes in a few other colors!)

I also linked some other cute and affordable casual summer dresses here (most under $50 and all but one under $100!):

And the rest of my outfit deets here:

Bisous,

Laurelle

Love this little guy so much, but I hate how he st Love this little guy so much, but I hate how he stinks!

I also hate cleaning his litter box…  Until I found @PrettyLitter last summer, I used to have to clean it every few days because the smell would be so unbearable.  Now, I can go 2-3 weeks before it starts to become bothersome.  SUCH a game changer!

I also love how #PrettyLitter helps me keep tabs on Myko's health.  The litter changes color when there is a potential health issue, helping you save on vet bills and potentially your cat's life!

Getting my glow on with @Temptu’s new tanning sy Getting my glow on with @Temptu’s new tanning system… a self-tanner spray and exfoliator spray duo that gives you an even, natural looking, sun-kissed glow so smooth, it looks airbrushed!

I’ve been getting comments and compliments on my tan lately, but I’ve actually not spent much time in the sun, and most of it has been with SPF! Instead I’ve been opting for a safer, quicker way to tan… The TEMPTU Mist Body Self-Tanner Spray & BHA Exfoliator Set.

The self-tanner spray is buildable and lasts for a week or longer, so you can maintain a healthy glow with weekly applications, or use daily to build up to a deeper tan quickly!  It’s also clean, packed with ingredients like Activys & Aloe to nourish and moisturize, and when primed with the BHA exfoliator spray, leaves skin + tan looking healthier and lasting longer!

The innovative precision-engineered spray tool delivers an ultra-fine mist, an even, continuous spray and no-compromise 360° spray technology so the application is thorough and seamless.  No mitt, no missed spots, no mess! 👌🏽👏🏽

I’ve been loving how quick and easy it’s been too get my skin glowing & tan, and most importantly appreciate how much better it is for my skin then laying in the sun for hours without SPF!

Head to my stories to shop!
