It can be tough at times to find cute outfits for those warmer months. Trying to put together outfits that are both stylish and help you stay cool can definitely be a challenge. That’s why we are so obsessed with midi dresses- they’re versatile enough to be styled for any time of the year and for any occasion. Take a look at our favorite ways to style midi dresses for those hotter days!

1. Always Classic

One of the absolute most basic and classic pieces that you’ll want to keep in your closet is a trusty denim button up, also known as a chambray top. There are so many different ways you could use a chambray, but one of our favorite ways is to tie it around your waist over a midi dress. Throw on your favorite pair of sandals and some statement earrings and you’re good to go! This outfit is perfect for everything from date night to grocery shopping, and one you will definitely want to have in your arsenal.

2. Baseball Cap Dreams

There’s just something about baseball caps that screams summer. One easy way to make your outfit a touch more casual is to add a baseball cap. Throw on your favorite gathered waist tie midi dress, slip on some trainers and a cute baseball hat, and you’re good to go. This is the perfect outfit to throw on for an outing with your girlfriends or a playdate at that park, and definitely passes the test of both comfort and temperature during those hotter days.

3. Lightweight Layers

Some may argue that layering your clothing is a no-go for the warmer months of the year. We disagree! There are plenty of ways to layer your clothing and elevate your outfit without sweating the day away. Pair a faux wrap midi dress with a lightweight kimono for an effortlessly elegant look. Top it off with a fun straw hat and your go-to pair of summer sandals and the look is complete. Whether you’re off to run errands or you have an activity to attend, this is the perfect outfit to stay cute and stay cool.

4. Tie it Up

Try something new and pair one of your favorite knit midi dresses with a shirt for a fresh look! Grab a fashion top and tie it in a knot at your waist. Not only will this create an entirely different look with your dress, but it will also accentuate your waist - a flattering look for everyone. You could also grab a short-sleeved, button down shirt and tie it in a knot in the middle for a cute summertime look.

5. Reliable Statements

Every woman needs a handful of good statement pieces in her closet to liven things up a bit. Finding a midi dress in a fun, vibrant print or bold color is a great way to have an easy piece to fall back on when you find yourself thinking, “I have nothing to wear!”. Throw your hair up in a messy bun, put on some cute, comfy flats, and add a fun necklace and you’re good to go! Whether you’re on your way to work or you have an event to attend, a fun statement dress is always a good way to go.

So as you brainstorm outfits that you can wear to beat the heat, consider the different ways you can wear and style a midi dress! You’ll quickly find that it’s one of your major wardrobe staples.
