If You’re Only Buying 1 Thing This Spring, Make It This

A few days, 8 outfits, various occasions, and 100 pictures after I first added this dress to my closet, I realized just what a versatile staple it really is. As if it’s price point (under $100) wasn’t enough reason to love it, I’ve already worn it multiple ways already and I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface of what this LWD can do! Keep scrolling for 8 ways to wear it and why this dress deserves the top spot on your spring shopping list.

When in doubt – just add sneakers! You can never go wrong with dressing down a LWD with a baseball cap and sneakers. To add some dimension to your outfit, layer it with  a printed blazer and an unstructured tote. (This black one is one of my favorites! Can’t believe it’s under $100…)

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | DENIM JACKET (UNDER $50) | CROPPED DENIM (UNDER $50) | STRIPED SLIDES (UNDER $50) | BASEBALL CAP | DIOR TOTE | PHONE CASE

Swap your standard white tee out for this tunic dress to turn an errands outfit into something a little more sophisticated. I love how the length breaks up this denim on denim combo! Just add a sporty slide and baseball cap to finish it off with a casual touch.

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | COMBAT BOOTS (ON SALE UNDER $50) | KNOTTED TOTE (UNDER $100) | SUNGLASSES

Sometimes the simplest looks are the ones that make the biggest statement! I love styling higher hems with combat boots and these two pieces make the perfect pair. I love how the white laces tie in the brightness of the tunic to pull the look together and the contrast of feminine ruffles with an edgy combat boot is so good. To keep it feeling like a daytime outfit, add a chic, simple tote.

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | CROPPED DENIM (UNDER $50) | STRAW DETAIL CROSSBODY (UNDER $50) | PLATFORM SANDALS ( UNDER $100) | PHONE CASE

Layering dresses and skirts over denim is a huge trend for spring, but if you’re not ready to take the leap, just dip your toe in the water by adding a tunic over a paid of your favorite denim. It’s basically a long-line blouse if you think about it, but I love the effortless, sophisticated spin it brings to an otherwise basic ensemble. Dress it up with some platform sandals and a coordinating bag for a look that can easily go from meetings to errands to Sunday brunch.

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | HARDWARE BELT (UNDER $25) | PLATFORM SANDALS (UNDER $100) | PANAMA HAT (UNDER $10) | PHONE CASE

Never underestimate the power of a dress that can go from airport to beach to dinner, all in one trip. This one really is that versatile – it all comes down to shoes and accessories. I love it paired with a belt, platform sandals, and this felt fedora for an easy festival season look just in time for Coachella this spring!

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | CROPPED FLARED DENIM (UNDER $50) | WHITE SNEAKERS (UNDER $100) | STRAW DETAIL CROSSBODY (UNDER $50) | KHAKI BASEBALL CAP |

Monochromatic looks always read more expensive than they are – I love the combo of this dress over these flared, cropped jeans. With a baseball cap and sneakers, it brings an effortlessly cool vibe to make this head-to-toe white/beige moment more wearable on the weekends.

DETAILS: WHITE TUNIC DRESS (UNDER $100) | RED BLAZER (ON SALE UNDER $50- COMES IN 3 COLORS) | CONVERSE SNEAKERS (ON SALE) | DIOR BAG | SUNGLASSES

A bold color instantly transforms this dress into the perfect backdrop for a statement-making piece. I love this bright blazer and the white and black balances out the color and tones it down to make it more wearable to the office, meetings, or meeting up with the girls.
