Need to breath some new life into that shift dress in your closet? I am coming up with a few ideas today, and sharing this short little floral number, too! Scroll to the end of this post to see a bunch of cute accessories to pair with summer dresses.

Once summer break came, I decided to browse Forever 21 for a few new dresses. This is one of my favorite stores to shop online for a dress because of the variety of lengths, patterns, styles, and most importantly – price points. I found this shift dress, and fell in love with the floral print, thin material, and the flirty length! I have been looking for something that is strictly for a summer day around town in flip flops, or a summer happy hour to grab appetizers (or tacos!) with friends.

I chose to add a trendy straw bag to carry with me, and some colorful wedges to complete my shift dress ensemble. The wedges are SO comfortable, and the little pop of color really brought out the floral pattern in the dark print.
