A simple bubble dress is a fantastic option for any woman, and this lingerie-inspired item from CLU is one of my personal top picks. For layering addicts, you can pile on tanks, long sleeved tops, and cardis without a problem– and when you start to heat up, you can shed those layers straight down to your comfortable shift. Sigh. . . how pretty and elegant in silk!

A dramatic boatneck can make your day when the weather is sticky-hot.When you need a little black dress with some attitude, I recommend sourcing this fantastic piece that features awesomely big and generous pockets that will make you just swoon! A little ruching under that waistband adds the smallest, nicest touch of fullness for anyone who needs a little added something to make her waist seem tiny in comparison!

Ombre shoes are so hot right now! These camel patent dress wedges from Franco Sarto are somewhat unusual, and we like that a lot. They’re high and shapely, with a cool silver disc at one side, plus a nice high heel that’s very tempting. Heel height measures 2.5 inches and will feel like nothing at all. A well-balanced wedge is a perfect way to step into a night to dancing and fun.
