27 Resort Style Dresses For Your Next Getaway

You’re probably thinking, resort style dresses…in April? Before you say it’s too early, just think of how fast time flies. Before we know it, we’ll be mid-summer and wondering why we didn’t stock up on all the dresses possible. After all, with summer and vacation season coming, it only makes sense to get what you can now and fast. From the beach to a casual walk in the city, vacation style comes in all shapes and sizes. Better yet, going away on holiday–even for a short amount of time–is the perfect time to experiment with your personal style. Try something new or simply get more of what you already love; there’s many reasons to buy new resort style dresses!

Resort Styles For Under The Sun

Most people would automatically assume resort style dresses were meant for the beach. Although we’ve got a piece for that occasion, vacation styles are actually for just about anywhere. Some of us don’t always lounge at the beach and prefer a good old stroll around town. So if you’re looking for versatile dresses you can bring along your daytime adventure, we’ve got just the ones.

 

The CHARO RUIZ Kayla Voile & Broderie Short Caftan Dress is most ideal for beach lovers, while the AGUA BY AGUA BENDITA Dos Gardenias Printed Cotton Mini Dress is leaning more towards that casual stroll. We picked these in particular because while they’re perfect for the specific occasions, you can also swap them out. After all, it’s vacation we’re talking about–allow resort style dresses to work for you and what you love to do.
