When I was packing for New York City a couple weeks ago I knew I’d probably be in dresses the whole weekend, as that would be comfortable to walk around in the heat.
With the weather in the low 80’s when we were there, the selection of 3 dresses that I took were perfect with a light jacket for the cooler mornings and evenings.
Because we were only there for a weekend, I didn’t need to bring that much with me.
I brought:
-2 day dresses
-1 night dress for dinner
-1 jean jacket that went with all the dresses
-1 pair of tennis-shoes (Keds)
-1 pair of sandals
-1 pair of flats to go with my dinner dress
-1 large purse
-1 cross body purse
I was really comfortable all weekend in the outfits I chose to bring and despite the cooler mornings and evenings when I needed the jacket, most of the day was perfect without.
Here is what I wore in New York City this Summer:

Awesome dress selection – you look stylish yet comfortable in all of these pics. I love how versatile a jean jacket can be. I usually prefer a darker wash as well!

I so agree… dresses are so great because they are so comfortable but can look dressier if need be. And that jean jacket I’ve had for about 10 years and it’s always in style! π

I love that dress! I watched it on Piperlime from when it first debuted last year and then waited and waited until it went on sale! Still paid quite a bit for it, but I just LOVE IT!
