Little White Dress Season with Lulus

a summer outfit

Nothing screams summer more than a little white dress. But find the perfect one can be tricky. Let’s face it – white can be a less than flattering color to wear! Especially when it’s tight (usually a no-no for me, ha!). If your usual go-to color is black (always chic and slimming), don’t be afraid of white!

My closet is full of white (which is a nightmare if you’re prone to spills or stains) – blouses, denim, dresses, jumpsuits, shoes. It’s by far my favorite color to wear! The key is to find dresses that highlight the parts of your body you are confident in, and hide the areas you’re less comfortable with. Usually the tummy! The wrong white dress can show every tiny bulge. Spanx helps. So does a (fake) tan!

A little white dress is perfect for daytime.

One of my favorite online shopping sites, Lulus, has the cutest selection of white dresses for day or night! I styled two daytime looks from Lulus to show you how easy and flattering white can be.

For daytime I like to keep my jewelry minimal and simple. On sunny days you will often see me wearing a hat because duh, sun! This bag by Cult Gaia has been everywhere this year and is my favorite summer purchase to date. I’m carrying the small size, which is more than big enough to carry my essentials and work on my frame (I’m not super tall!).

An off the shoulder little white dress is the perfect throw on and go look for brunch! Add some rose gold lucite mules and you can take the dress into evening cocktails with the girls as well (add a denim or leather jacket when it gets chilly!).

Needless to say, you’ll be seeing me wear a LOT of white this summer.

It’s such an easy color to wear – it really goes with anything and as long as you find a fit that’s flattering, you’re good to go from day to night. I’m going to Chicago this weekend (can’t wait!!! I lived in Chicago before moving to LA and it will always hold a special spot in my heart) and will definitely be packing one of these white dresses in my suitcase.

Here are some of my other favorites from Lulus LWD collection!

Bodycon Slip Dress for Night (Feels very 90s Calvin Klein)

Cross Back Maxi (Super flattering fit!)

    Those shiny rose gold mules definitely caught my eyes.. and I chuckled when you said tight whites don’t really work on you because I was thinking “yea cuz that’d look like underwear” and I then I realized that’s where tighty whities come from LOL

    Indeed, nothing screams summer more than a little white dress. The one you are wearing is so dreamy, gorgeous and it reminds me of the ones from Chloe. Adore how you paired it with the black gladiator sandals and the Cult Gaia bag. Just perfect. Have a lovely day! xx

  16. […] But if I could only wear one type of clothing for the rest of my life, it would be a sundress. Little white dress season is my favorite. I love them in every variation – I’m an endless summer kind of girl […]
