I love a good casual dress for summertime: it's easy to throw on and super breezy, but a lot more put-together than the typical t-shirt and denim cutoffs combination we see so often in laid-back Vancouver. I've been living in some variation of this outfit for days of shopping and walking this summer; it's not only super comfortable, but an easy dress makes it that much simpler to try clothes on, too!



Wearing: Wilfred dress (via Aritzia), vintage belt, MICHAEL Michael Kors bag (similar), Coach sandals, ASOS, Lauren Elan (c/o) and MONIKALOVE (bfrend) (c/o) bracelets

Oh I love this dress, so pretty and feminine and I'm also a big fan of dresses for easy laid back days, especially for shopping for the same reason you mentioned. I also love the belt :)
you look lovely as always!

Every time I see you wear this dress, I kick myself for not buying it - my main hesitation was that it might not be versatile enough, but you've styled it so many different ways that I know for sure I was mistaken. I love this incarnation with that fabulous orange bag, which is without a doubt my favourite piece in your arsenal of accessories :) You're looking lovely as always, Jen. Hope that you and David are both well.

I love a great summer dress too; wearing one piece of clothing that instantly makes you look put together is always a plus! The colours of the dress are beautifully brought out by your accessories. Still a fan of your orange bag and the gold Coach sandals are perfect!

Is that a wrap dress? I LOVE wrap dresses. They are my new obsession just because they are so easy to style! And comfortable.

This is such a pretty and casual look! I'd definitely wear it!! http://katejones.me

this dress is so pretty jen! i have to disagree about wearing dresses shopping though, because if you are trying on a top then you can't see how it looks with a bottom and vice versa! it all depends on what you are trying on though :)

Love the floral dress! I totally agree...a dress is definitely more put together than t-shirt and jeans or shorts.
