You have at least one summer party to attend this season. 

Whether it’s graduation, a family reunion, or a good, old-fashioned backyard BBQ get-together, we all want to wear a nice outfit and be comfortable in the summer heat. And, truth bomb: this Time & Tru dress will cost you less than the appetizer tray.

Dresses are the easiest party outfit since they make you feel put together and don’t take any effort to coordinate separates. Second, they keep your legs nice and cool thanks to airflow throughout the skirt—win! I especially love the length on this one. It’s not a floor-length maxi (though it’s described on the website as a maxi), but it’s still a touch longer than a midi… a “mixi” if you will. 😆

And yes, I know there are TONS of adorable summer dresses on the market, but the functionality of this wide strap tank dress lets you enjoy the comfort of wearing a regular bra (perfect when you’d rather focus on entertaining conversations than fussing with something strappy – or strapless). The dress is also a simple design, so it doesn’t make you look like you’re trying too hard for a neighborhood gathering.

I can’t show this dress without mentioning the knot detailing at the bottom – and knots are the summer trend. And I’m actually loving it! Knots give this dress just a touch of style on top of its pretty simple silhouette.

With four available colors (three neutrals and a bright pop of color), this dress is easy to style. And at such a low price point, you can add on a new pair of sandals and this $18 Jordache denim jacket that’s quickly become Collin’s new favorite!

We found the outfit. Now it’s your turn to get out there and show it off. 💃

  3. Momofzander

    The material is not very forgiving. I tried them on and the material clung in weird places

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks for letting us know, Momofzander! We appreciate the feedback!

    • Sara

      Thanks for that feedback. I was wondering how it would work with my mom pudge. I think I’ll pass.

  4. Katherine

    I love this dress. It looks like it came from a boutique. I did size up one size because it fit snug. All my other dresses from Walmart are true to size.

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks, Katherine! And, thanks for the tip about sizing up.

  5. MKfromMN

    I love when you feature clothes every week.
    Are you able to feature plus size from Walmart too?
    It is really hard to find plus size clothing that fit well and economical at stores other than at plus size shops.
    Thanks a bunch!!

    • Stephanie

      They’ve shown some before. I bought a shirt and some awesome jeggings because they featured them (both plus sized). Had no idea Walmart had kind of upped their clothing game.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      You’re welcome! Thanks so much for the request! I’ll be sure to pass that along to the team!

  6. Holly

    I was there yesterday and saw some Time and Tru dresses that looked to be made of similar material but were t-shirt style with short sleeves and pockets and fell just below the knee. They were really cute with tons of colors and looked like they would be super comfy!

    • Sydney

      Thank you! I would love some with sleeves, I’ll have to look for them.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Those sound super nice, Holly! Thanks for the heads up on what you spotted in your store! I’ll have to look for those too!

  7. Kelly

    I have it in black and love the knot detail! I put on a jean jacket and bright leather earrings! Amen for a dress you can wear a normal bra with

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Sounds like an awesome outfit, Kelly! I’m loving the knot detail too! Thanks for much for the feedback!

    • Anna
