If you read my post, Top 5 Must Haves for The Beach, you’ll know that I am dying for summer to get here! The weather is slowly creeping into the 70’s and I’ve been starting to break out my summer clothes. While I was doing that, I noticed that I really need some more dresses! I love to throw on a comfy dress with flip flops in the summer! I started to compile a list of dresses under $50 and I’m going to share them with you. Here we go!
#1. Nordstrom Maxi Dress $41.40
I just can’t get over how cute and breezy this dress looks!
#2. ModCloth Maxi Dress $34.99
This dress can be dressed up very easily, which makes it super versatile. I love to make all my clothes work overtime!
#3. Target’s Tiered Top Midii Dress $27.99
You could wear this dress to church, a wedding or out to dinner and be completely comfortable!
#4. Charlotte Russe Belted Chambray Shirt Dress $9.99
Ok, I think everyone needs one of these, and this one is super cheap!!! My friends and I went to the beach last fall and we even used this dress as a cover up. It’s super versatile and can even be worn in fall with boots. Go get one!
#5. Target Elastic Blouson Waist Dress $27.98
I have a dress similar to this and the comfort factor is beyond amazing! It’s just easy.
#6. Old Navy Off-The-Shoulder Chambray Dress $22.45
I’m usually not an off-the-shoulder gal, but these are starting to become all the rage. They are really cute, so maybe I’ll jump on the bandwagon too! You could accessorize the heck out of this dress…belt, necklace, hat..anything really!
#7. Macy’s Striped Rouched Dress $19.99
I am in love with this dress. I think it’s the fact that it looks so comfortable and the rouched sides and detailed back give it enough detail to dress it up a bit from an ordinary tank dress.
#8. Nordstrom Maxi Dress $38.90
Everyone’s got a maxi dress and everyone could use another maxi dress, right?! I just love the royal blue color.
#9. Zappos.com dress by Roxy $44.99
Super comfy looking and adorable detail in the back!
#10. Billabong Strapless Dress $34.95
Strapless maxi dresses tend to weigh me down, but I think this dress could fit the bill because it’s short and has a belt.
Like anything you see here? Although I like them all, I’m leaning towards #2 and #7. What do you think?
The Macy’s dress is my favorite but its already sold out! 🙁
Oh no! It is sold out! My post must have gone viral this morning and Macy’s couldn’t keep up with the demand, lol!
Well now you’ve got me thinking about cheap summer dresses!
This one would be great for summer swamp weather in DC: https://www.nordstromrack.com/shop/product/1949435/velvet-torch-pinstriped-sweetheart-midi-cami?color=BLUE-WHITE

Annnnnnd, I’ll be wearing this on repeat all summer. https://www.nordstromrack.com/shop/product/1899762/gypsy-05-easy-shirt-dress?color=AZURE
I love all of those, especially the pinstriped one with the sweetheart neckline! Thanks for sharing!
This is a great list of summer dresses. Does #4 actually un-button in the front? My baby is still nursing, and it can be difficult to find dresses that work for breastfeeding.
It actually does unbutton in the front. That would be a great dress for breastfeeding Tracy!
Thanks! Some shirt dresses have false buttons. I’ll have to get this one. I’m enjoying reading your blog!
I love how you mention wearing jean dresses as coverups with your friends at the beach! They must be some pretty cool girls!
They’re actually a pretty quirky bunch and I LOVE THEM!!!
