I like Old Navy’s ponte dresses — particularly for the price — and I think this one is really cute, even though I’m not usually a floral girl. It’s got some stretch, it’s machine washable, and it has a keyhole cutout and button closure at the back. It’s on sale today for only $16.50!

This boatneck flare dress from Ann Taylor looks really great. I like a boatneck myself — I think it’s a flattering look and sort of Audrey Hepburn-ish. I’ve always just worn my normal bra and pushed the straps aside, but this one looks like it may be too wide for that (but who knows — it could be the model). The dress comes in regular and petite sizes 00–18.

This Ottoman dress from Boden has a lot going for it — it’s fully lined, machine washable, and on sale…
