Whenever I need to wear something appropriate for super hot weather, I look for cotton or linen-blend maxi dresses. After a recent trip to Target I picked up a striped maxi dress. This exact maxi dress comes in tons of prints and patterns for under $30. In this post, I am sharing the best summer maxi dresses and how I would accessorize each look.
To style my new cream/purple striped dress I wore knotted espadrille sandals (also from Target) with a straw bag. Walking around the Vinoy Hotel to capture this outfit, I felt so comfortable in this Target maxi dress. The top of the dress has a round high-neck with adjustable straps. The strapless bra that I prefer to wear with these sleeveless dresses is also available at Target. You can see it here.
Keep scrolling down to see more summer maxi dress options and how I would imagine wearing each dress! You’ll see some gorgeous new Nordstrom floral maxi dresses from the brand ASTR THE LABEL  as well as a casual green tiered maxi from Abercrombie. Enjoy these outfit ideas! Let me know your favorite look in the comments.
