One of the perks of being a fashion editor or market editor is that you essentially get paid to shop. On the flip side, it inevitably ends up being hard on your wallet, because your eyes light up at an endless amount of stylish pieces throughout the day. Basically, this is my current predicament after putting together an assortment of all the cute dresses and shoes that caught my attention this past month. Let me tell you—I want every last piece.
I found something to fit every personal style for a variety of occasions or to fit your current style mood. A huge theme you'll find (thanks to Sara Ramén's inspiring featured look), is the combination of vibrant floral-print dresses, usually midi-length, juxtaposed with edgy shoe options like black mary-jane flats. Another more chill vibe I put together is embodied with the mix of chic dresses alongside more traditionally casual slide sandals. The rest of my collection is giving inspiration that's perfect for more elevated affairs such as date night or an upcoming spring wedding guest look. Ahead, dive into my top 32 picks of the moment.
Sara Ramén's fresh floral-print ensemble is given a cool-girl edge with the help of black pointed-toe flats. This whole scene is giving me warm-weather European vacation vibes.
