I’ve been looking for a comfy and pretty, floor-grazing maxi dress to sport around this summer. Ideally, it would be something I could easily throw on in the AM with some flip flops, jet off to brunch and shopping with the girls and then toss on a pair of cute wedges to transform it to a relaxed evening look.

STEEP
I love the fun print of this Rachel Pally Print U Ring Long Dress (as pictured on the left). With flattering rushing and light pleating at the bust (great for girls who might need a little help), this frock is perfect for summer and can be dressed up or down with just the addition or subtraction of a couple of accessories. $267 Available at shopbop.com.

CHEAP
A much more affordable option would be this Victoria’s Secret smocked maxi dress. With empire waist and adorable ruffle detail at the bottom, this would make an equally vibrant and versatile addition to the wardrobe. On sale for $55 at victoriassecret.com
