Any time friends, family, or a reader asks me what piece they should wear when the weather warms up, I will always recommend they start with finding a chic white dress. It's a classic hero piece that fashion people and beyond always reach for during spring and summer, and for good reason. White dresses stylishly signal the change in the season and come in options to fit just about every personal style and occasion.
