On steamy summer days, putting together an outfit can feel like a chore. The last thing you want to wear is clothing that will weigh you down or cling to your body. There's one style you can always turn to that will keep you cool while looking put together, though: a breezy dress. Amazon has thousands of short-sleeve styles to choose from, and prices are as low as $15.
Running errands? Slip on this T-shirt dress and call it a day. Going to an outdoor gathering? This wrap style will get you so many compliments. Shop more short-sleeve dresses to wear for any occasion this summer below.
Amazon The breathable slub jersey fabric and roomy, relaxed fit make this dress perfect for casual summer days. Available in black, green, red, and lavender, the cotton crewneck style features short sleeves, shirring at the waist, and a tiered skirt. Wear the dress with a baseball hat and comfy sneakers, or throw it over a bathing suit to head to the beach.
Amazon Shoppers love this maxi for "work this summer, client lunches, and even date nights out." The ruffled waistband gives the look of a peplum, and the tie at the neck can be left open for a V-neck style or tied for a higher neckline. According to reviewers, the polyester material is "so light and breezy;" however, they said it can be a little sheer, so you might want to consider wearing a slip.
Amazon You can pair this versatile dress with socks and chunky loafers to wear to the office, or wear it with strappy sandals for a summer evening out. Ruffled short sleeves give the dress an elevated look compared to other more basic shift styles, but it's still casual enough to wear for everyday occasions. Made of polyester, there are a variety of solid shades to choose from, including green, navy, purple, and pink, as well as paisley and botanical prints.
Amazon You can't beat a classic T-shirt dress for an effortless summer style. The viscose and elastane-blend fabric is stretchy and lightweight, and a side slit allows you to move around without being restricted by the long skirt. "This is the perfect dress—casual and light enough for a barbecue [and] just neat enough for work," one shopper commented. "[It] works with sneakers, sandals, or flats."
