Summer Dresses: Mid Week Muse

There is nothing I love more in the summer than dresses.  I'm not sure how practical they will be with a baby this year but I'm still hoping that I can make them work in some way.  

I've been meaning to post this since I wore it two weekends ago,  I couldn't get the best picture at my parents so bare with me.    It's the Tildon racerback dress that I posted about here. 
Also I hope you love my crooked mirror selfies because I will not be modeling for you all anytime soon.  #tooawkwardtoposeforsomeone

The dress is a lot more plum in person than it appeared online. At first I wasn't sure but my options were limited so I went with it and I'm so glad it did.   For $48 I think the quality is great and it's not see through at all.  It was also super comfortable since it just hangs and doesn't grab anywhere.  I did wear spanx underneath to help keep it all sucked in, but I pretty much wear spanx all the time now.  Maybe one day when I'm in shape again I won't need them :)
I paired it with an old pair of Via Spiga open toed nude heels and a fun neon necklace that belonged to my mom. 

Every since I bought this dress I've been itching to do more summer dress shopping.  Here are a few that are on my list...

d.RA Jolie Dress

Loving how flowy and comfortable this one looks but still somewhat dressy because of the material 

Colletive Concepts Tie Back Dress

Love this dress- I feel like you could really dress this one up or down and could probably pull it off for work (I know I could have at my old job)

Sabine Phoebie Eyelet Dress

I pinned this last week and can't stop thinking about it.  I have a dress similar to this that I bought in Rhode Island 5 years ago that is on it's last leg so I'm thinking this might need to be the replacement.

J.Crew Factory Ringspun Cotton Tank Dress

This just screams comfortable and relaxing and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't look stupid at the park in this dress.  It's also on sale right now with 30% for only $39.50 and comes in hot pink and white. 

Splendid Drapey Maxi Dress

I blogged about this Splendid maxi two weeks ago but I found this one that I like so much better- this is the drapey version which just looks much more loose and comfortable.  If you can't tell already I don't really like things to be "grabby" on me- I prefer flowy dresses and tops :)

Do you wear a lot of dresses in the summer?  Do you prefer maxi or short dresses?  Anyone have advice for wearing sundresses with a baby?
