I like to definite my personal style as everlasting spring and summer chic. I love ruffles, light fabrics, and I’m not afraid of color and also wearing pastels. So I’m thriving in the middle of summer. I’m loving the heat, the lavender fields, and my newest ruffle dress.
So this summer I went off shopping for a wedding guest dress and my visit to the lavender fields. I was ecstatic when I literally found a linen lilac dress with slightly ruffled straps at Forever 21. This ruffle dress is perfect for frolicking in the lavender fields and also going out to dinner with your friends after a friend’s wedding. It’s been in the high 80s and low 90s in Seattle so this ruffle linen dress was perfect for both occasions! I felt like I could breathe, dance, and skip through fields of flowers in this dress!
Whether you’re planning a trip to a flower field, a friend’s wedding, or maybe even just brunch,
Here are 25 Ruffle Dresses for Your Summer Wardrobe:

Petite Style Tips:
Mini dresses are your BEST FRIEND. When shopping for a mini dress…
1.Look for a synch waist to highlight your waistline. Elements like stitching, an elastic waist, or even a tie feature can help highlight your figure.
2. Make sure the straps are adjustable UNLESS you get a chance to try the dress on and can make sure the straps actually fit.
You can shop my exact ruffle dress for $20! Hat, shoes, and bag are look alikes:

Trend Alert: Polka dots!
I’m so excited that polka dots have made a strong comeback in 2018. I’m predicting that you’re going to see more polka dots this upcoming fall – both at fashion week and in traditional retailers. If you’re looking to add print to your wardrobe, polka dots are a nice break from stripes and florals!
Ruffle Dress #3: The Tropical Dress

First of all, F21 has been killing it lately with all their clothes! I have to stop visiting their website because it honestly becomes a little too dangerous even at their affordable prices! This ruffle dress you featured is really cute. It’s a simple white dress but the small details is where it packs a punch! I love the tropical cold shoulder maxi that you picked and the button front ruffle trim chambray dress. Both are pretty pieces!
